Thank you Sue, for reminding me of the embroidery threads for colours (I have lots and always forget they are there to be used, ;-) What I would still like to know is what other white threads would look and work in a similar way to the broke and Egyptian 36/2 size. I want to buy more to keep available for handky edgings, yardage type laces because I want the crisp fresh lovely look of these other threads.

I haven't got Brenda's book to hand, but I frequently use DMC stranded embroidery threads in lace.... 48 metres of thread at not a horrendous cost and 100's of colours!!

I have used and like Brok and Egyptian 36/2 which I like for the crispness and slight sheen on the finished lace and wonder what other, (readily available without a mortgage),
