Since the first attempt to send this got lost in cyberspace (received three lace digests since sending it), I'll try again.
In preparation for taking Michael Giusiana's Binche course at Sweet Briar in a few weeks, I am starting to prepare prickings. From the three choices for beginning students who have done some snowflakes, Small Mentebolle from Binche Lace (page 81) seemed to have the greatest combination of new techniques. Unfortunately for me the pricking is sized for 140/2 egyptian cotton. I would prefer to use 70/2, since I haven't worked with anything finer yet and want to be able to see and correct mistakes without worrying about breaking threads. I can use my scanner to copy and resize the pricking, but need to know how much larger to make it. I'd appreciate any help figuring out how to derive a conversion formula.
