[lace] Subs
The responses seem to confirm what I suspected - that I forgot to renew. With the best of intentions I always mean to send the cheque straight away - ho hum! You would think after 25ish years I'd know better ;o).

[lace] subs for Tanne 80?
Hi, I am looking for threads that can be substituted for the Tanne (Cotona) 80. I don't have either of these, and am wondering if any that I have on hand would work, since I want to start the project now, not in 2 or 3 weeks Can anyone tell me what the Ne or Nm equivalent would be? I guess one of these days I'll have to purchase a chart that tells me the substitutes.

Re: [lace] subs for Tanne 80?
Hello Marianne and everyone A very favourite thread reference is Threads for Lace, by Brenda Paternoster. (may I promote Brenda's book? I shall: http://paternoster.orpheusweb.co.uk/threads/threads.html If you have a source of YLI threads, the YLI 70/2 heirloom sewing cotton is an equivalent in measure to Tanne 80; or YLI 100/2, a tad finer. The Egyptian Cotton 80 is close, too.

Hello Marianne I am looking for threads that can be substituted for the Tanne (Cotona) 80. I don't have either of these, and am wondering if any that I have on hand would work, since I want to start the project now, not in 2 or 3 weeks Egyptian Gassed 80/2 or YLI Heirloom Sewing 70/2. Can anyone tell me what the Ne or Nm equivalent would be? To convert from CC (English cotton count, also sometimes called NeC = Number English cotton) to Nm (Number metric) multiply by 1.69 Thus 80/2 CC is 135 Nm To convert to NeL (English Linen number) multiply the CC by 0.36. Thus 80 CC = 29 Nm Brenda in Allhallows, Kent http://paternoster.orpheusweb.co.uk/index.html - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Oops sorry!! I should have said To convert to NeL (English Linen number) *DIVIDE* the CC by 0.36. Thus 80 CC = 29 Nm 222 On 29 Dec 2008, at 09:29, Brenda Paternoster wrote: Can anyone tell me what the Ne or Nm equivalent would be?
