So in my last post about tracking down the history of the ellusive 'lucet monster', I mentioned that I was going to make another round of ILL requests to check in to the bibliography from Lucet Braiding: Variations on a Renaissance Cord, by Elaine Fuller. Here is what I have gotten back from my university ILL desk:
Goodnow, Kendra and Hilliger, Albert C. "Lucette Cord Made Easy" 1978
ILL:
Well when my search turned up nothing, I did an Internet search and this was the only link. I did not locate a library that has it listed under this title or authors.
Your best bet would be to order it.*
ME to the LiveJournal Crew:
I really don't want to have to order this book(let) - even though it is *only* $6: Anyone happen to have a copy and be willing to thumb through it for any 'history' information?
Wilkinson, Dorothy S "Needlework Tools: The Lucet" Needle Arts, June 1997, pp. 16-17
ILL:
The Monticello Needlearts, "Needlework Tools : The Lucet" by Doroty S. Wilkinson, June 1997, was not searchable either. I am terrible sorry, but the title did turn up under one library, but it is a book, and it is part of their rare books collection and in processs.
ME to the LiveJournal Crew:
I attempted a search on WorldCat and a number of article archives - no luck.
Proctor, Molly "Needlework Tools and Accessories: A Collectors Guide" London: BT Batsford, Ltd. 1990
ILL:
I was able to request Needlework Tools and Accessories.
ME to the LiveJournal Crew:
SCORE....
Well, one out of three ain't bad....*ttthhbt*
ill,
lucet
