Hi Terrence, My husband I have recently gotten involved in living history, 
so I am happy to see we share some of the same crafts.  I also enjoy the 
portability of the lucet and my hhusband got me a inkle loom for Christmas 
but I haven't learned to use it yet.

I am currently working with stick weaving because it is simple and also very 
portable.

What is kumihimo braiding?  What time period was it usedin?

We are protraying the French and Indian War, 1750's.

I am looking forward to reading more of your posts.

Carol
