Hi Brenda, Thanks for the information and the link to your piece. When I go through your site I feel inadequate when I see the amount of lace you have made, and so beautifully! Janice

I measured it as 20 w/cm, but it's a slub thread so difficult to get an accurate measurement. I have just finished (bank holiday weekend) a torchon edging made with Filato per Tombolo di Cantu 30 with Yaspe 30/2 for the workers. Not conventional to mix cotton and silk but I wanted to see how the Yaspe worked up. The mat's to big to get it all onto the scanner so I'll need to mess about with the camera to get a proper pic for the website gallery, but I've added a scan of 1/4 of it to: http://paternoster.orpheusweb.co.uk/lace/lacepics/lacepics.html Brenda > Also the thread calls for Yaspe shantung 100% siede, silk, soie Nm > 30/2 Nel > 50/2 > I don't see it in Brenda's book but I think it could be 18 wraps.
