Diana, I have used Aurofil 50 for needlelace and it works up beautifully. I haven't tried it for bobbin lace - yet, but I am sure it would be excellent. I have the larger cone of off white/creamy colour, rather than the small reels that come in a wide variety of colours. I also have a cone of Aurofil #28 - It would be OK for bobbin lace, but is more loosely spun, and Not nice for needlelace.
I find Finca is excellent, too, for both disciplines of lacemaking. You won't go wrong with either of them. Refer to the Threads book for equivalent sizes. Regards from Liz in Melbourne, Oz.
