No, I haven't seen that thread (yet!)
The way I make a wrapping is to draw the parallel lines exactly 1 cm
apart, using the computer, and print out onto paper. Then take a strip
of the paper and fold it around a small piece of card so that it's
stiff enough to handle and the lines are straight across the width.
Wrap so that the threads lie close together, touching but not
overlapping and count. I then repeat the winding - if it's the same
number that's it, if it's different I rewind again and generally two of
the three windings will have given the same result.

I can't see it in Brenda's book. Probably the easiest way for you to
find the wraps per cm, is to wrap some thread round a ruler or pencil
or bobbin for 1 cm and count for yourself. If you let me know what the
wraps/cm are, I can them find a comparable thread in Brenda's book for
you, and let you know the suggested pricking size
