Hello Francis and everyone there doesn't seem to be a standard measure for the knitting yarns in Nm etc., the measuring is comparative, that is to say, what size fabric you can knit.
I found a general discussion here: http://knittingcrochet.suite101.com/article.cfm/yarnweight and a comparison by stitch gauge here (laceweight is 8 stitches per inch or more of a stockinette stitch sample) www.purlsoho.com/purl/products/*yarn*list Does this help?
