[lace] resizing patterns

[Kathy]

Is there a general rule of thumb for enlarging or reducing a pattern if 
you wish to use the /Threads for/ /Lace/ book and use a different size 
thread than the pattern recommends?  For example, the pattern calls for 
Copley Marshall 80/2 (48 wraps/cm)and I want to try to use Aurifil Mako 
40wt (36 wraps/cm).  It's a pretty big jump in thread size, and I don't 
have any idea what percentage to start to enlarge the pattern (some more 
of the patterns in /Milanese Lace/ by Read  & Kincaid).  Is there a 
point that you can enlarge or reduce the pattern too much?

Thanks for any help,
Kathy in Holly, MI
