Hello Caroline

I don't think Coats-Anchor make a No 12 crochet cotton but they do make Pearl cotton no 12, which is what I'd already suggested as a substitute for the pricking in the Lace Guild calendar.

Hello all spiders,
I have contacted Maria Jose Jover, a fellow lacemaker designer of the tape lace pattern on the Lace Guild Calendar. "Dalia" is a cotton thread used here in Spain for crocheting, I do not remember now the manufacturer. I have been told by Maria Jose that if you have any trouble finding the thread "Dalia" nº 12, it can be changed by: Anchor Fabra Coats (crochet thread), nº12, ball of 5 gr.
Hope this helps.

Carolina. Barcelona. Spain.

Thread help
The October pattern in the Lace Guild calendar for a tape lace pumpkin caught my fancy. It's made by a Spanish lacemaker, Maria Jose Jovez and calls for Daliam cotton thread 50 #12. Has anyone ever heard of this thread? I want to use some crochet cotton from my stash and it would help to know approx. what weight it is so I know how to adjust the pricking. So far I haven't been able to track it down.
