The orange one is 50wt, the green is 40wt, and the grey is 28wt. There is also a red one that is 12wt. Haven't used these for bobbin lace, but have done miniature knitting and lace knitting (doilies) with these threads.

Does anyone know what the size of the threads are based on the core colors? The only other packaging on the spools was a plastic shrink wrap. Although, the green one must have had a sz. 40 marking somehow, but the other 2 are not noted. Any help would be appreciated. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
