Hi Lorri and everyone <waves hand> I can help.
The Nr. 12 is a measure and I'm thinking it is the Madeira Metallic No. 12 listed in Brenda's Threads for Lace - I use DMC Fil Or or the Mouliné metallic embroidery floss, one or two strands depending on the pricking. I don't think there is an English translation available and from my experience with this delightful book, the text only re-states what is described in the prickings and diagram. When I really want to find out what the text is all about, I type it into babelfish and most of the time I don't learn anything more than what I've already decided from reading the pricking. I might have a printout from such a translation in my notes; I'll contact you privately if so.
