I am new to using crochet thread so I had a hard time finding a source for the Anchor "Pellicano" cotton thread used in this pattern. Come to find out it is a UK/US translation issue. Here is the link I found by the author regarding the source: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lace-blouse-2
She recommends pearl crochet cotton #8 as a substitute unless you want to purchase from the UK of course.
