DMC TO ANCHOR FLOSS CONVERSION CHART
DMC and Anchor are the most commonly used brands of stranded cotton. They both have a wide variety of colors and are made of good-quality stranded cotton. The thread is comprised of six strands, which can be easily separated as you might want to stitch with less than 6 strands depending on your project. The Romantic Landscape Stitch Color Palette uses the following shades of thread: Antique Mauve Light, Antique Mauve Medium, Antique Mauve Dark, Moss Green, Moss Green Dark, and Green Gray Dark.
