Design

I designed the Adjust-a-Cord so I could have one tool that does everything I-Cord. They can be adjusted to allow for 2, 3 or 4 stitch I-Cord, different yarn thicknesses, various tension requirements, left or right-hand dominant people and different chaining techniques. The needles can also be arranged diagonally which I find helps make the action of pulling the work off the top of the needles easier than straight needles.

The Lightning Lucet works in the same way except it is less wide and comes with 2 needles and makes a 2-stitch I-Cord also known as lucet cord. The cord is slightly less tight than a standard lucet fork would produce but it makes it much faster.

The available models and main differences are as follows

Adjust-a-Cord

Comes with 4 standard needles for 2, 3 or 4-stitch i-cord.
Suitable for Sock, DK and Aran weighted yarn.
Also available in various patterns!

Lightning Lucet (Standard)

Comes with 2 standard needles for 2-stitch i-cord/lucet
Suitable for Sock, DK and Aran weighted yarn.

Lightning Lucet (Chunky)

Comes with 2 large needles for 2-stitch i-cord/lucet
Suitable for one strand of Chunky yarn or up to three strands of Aran weight yarn

Features all models share

  • Change width between needles. The further apart the needles, the thicker yarn it can accommodate or looser the stitch is
  • Needles can be placed in a straight line or diagonally slanted both left and right leaning. This helps crafters to use it comfortably regardless of their preferred chaining technique or dominant hand
  • To switch the slant direction, flip the side of the tool with the slanted holes in it around. 
  • Slanted needles make it easier to pull the i-cord off the top of the tool than straight needles.
  • All models include three sets of M5 nuts and bolts as well as the necessary needles.
