Hello Suzy
the formulas are excellent brenda, and i'm totally confused. i was a
little mistaken by the size. they sell it in 66/3, but don't worry
because i found another maker of 3 ply linen thread which gives the
length of the thread. i'm going to write the company (email) and ask
what the equivalent size for a cotton size 60 would be,
Cotton 60/2, cotton 60/3, cotton 60/4 or cotton 60/6? They are all
different.
As I said thread sizes are a minefield!
did you major in algebra? are you an accountant?
No and No. I only got to O-level (16 years old school exams) with
maths, Algebra, geometry, trigonometry etc were ok but I lost it once
we started on calculus - and according to my Dad it's only then that
maths becomes interesting!
the company i'm looking at now is "threadneedle street" and the website
url is:
http://www.threadneedlestreet.com/linthrd.htm
I've been told by several people that Goldschild and Londonderry linens
are the same, and all the label info, colours etc do match each other,
BUT, I've surfed for them several times and never been able to find a
website for the manufacturer, only major stockists. I'd be surprised
if they don't have some sort of web presence, but it's probably all in
German (which I don't understand) and I'm not putting the right words
into Google.
