Hello Judith,
häkeln is crochet Häkelgarn thread for crochet. No 80 is fine it’s for crochet 
lace. It’s very strong twisted so it’s not fitting for every sort of bobbin 
lace.

Yes, Häkelgarn means crochet thread, (I’m not sure which language;
Norwegian? Finnish?  So probably DMC Cordonnet or Special Dentelles
(“tatting cotton”) or something similar.
I don’t know what Taschenticher means - it’s probably referring to a
specific part of the lace.

[lace] Lace Guild Advent Calendar Competition Results

2016-01-04 Thread Jean Leader
Happy New Year!

We've pulled the winners of the Advent Calendar Competition out of the 
electronic hat and they are

1. Achim Siebert
2. Silvia Scholz

Thank you to everyone who took part - this seems to have been a more difficult 
competition than last year but nevertheless some of you managed to crack it!

We've put the answers on the Lace Guild website and we've also mounted a list 
of credits for the lace in the calendar.

If you would like to contribute a picture or pattern for next year's Advent 
calendar we'd love to hear from you.

Jean and David

'  it seems to me that the last two times
that I've sent messages to this list, they have not shown up in the archives'

Hi Arlene - I have had the same experience with the last couple of messges I 
have sent to the lace@arachne address. They haven't  appeared in the digest. 
Not significant enough in content for me to remember  and follow through until 
I read your message.
