Thanks for the help, Brenda. I know I have never heard of the Goldschild thread. I'm going to have to do some trial and error sampling and if nothing looks correct, it will be shrinking the pattern to fit what thread is available.

Bouc 30 or Fresia 30/2 and Guetermann linen are all very similar, 2S-19 wraps/cm. Knox Falcon 30 and Knox Gimp 20 also measured the same but they were discontinued many years ago. I haven't seen Goldschild NeL 50/3 (is it made?) Goldschild Nm 50/3 (NeL 80/3) is finer at 24 wraps/cm but also being 3 ply it is a bit rounder/firmer than a 2 ply.
