That means she used Bockens 60/3 for the white and ecru, and Bockens
35/2 (equivalent to 50/3) for the colours.
As Tamara said, if a (fairly recent) pattern states linen thread
without a brand name the chances are it's Bockens linen.

6 Paare, Leinen 60/3

Now I am guessing it means 6 pairs for the main body plus 3 pairs per
leg
Not plus, at least according to my dictionary; 6 pairs (legs: always
3 pairs)
Again a guess it is in linen 60/3 but which

It's been my experience that, whenever linen (without a brand) is
mentioned in the European books, chances are that Bockens is the one
used, especially in odd sizes.
It was loose in a folder so I had not looked - but on the inside fold is
Leinengardne:
Bockerns Knyppelgarn
Weiss oder ecru 60/3
Farbig 35/2 (entspricht 50/3)
Thank you Tamara, Amanda and Bev!!
