Default wpi measure for Cebelia 40?

I'm trying to decide if I want to do a particular pattern with some lovely
100% silk I picked up from my LYS the other day. The wpi measure on the
cones is 2/60. Is Cebelia comparable? Somehow I think my stuff is probably
thinner than that. I may need to just buck up and pick a pattern (or design
one) that would allow for some flexibility if I end up producing something
too small. This silk is so thin, but so lovely that I can't wait to use it!

from AGOL, Alpine Lace (I think that's the name) from AGOL, a men's sweater
vest for my sweetie, and I just finished a Japanese lace sweater for myself.
Now comes the hard part....disciplining myself enough to block it and sew it
together!
