Martina Wolter-Kampman. I really like the way hers is organized and the information in it... but Brenda's does have the advantage of being updated often and allows us to consider threads that weren't specifically designed for lacemaking. I refer them both too!

Of course, my brain can't conjure her name-- Walters? Walker? Anyway the book is something like "Thread and Pricking". She uses a different system for measuring the threads than does Brenda and is organized differently. I like both books. Sometimes I have trouble finding something in one and can find it in the other.
