DMC Stranded Cotton Shade Card - W100B

I didnt know this kind of stuff existed and was delighted to purchase this. Very good in comparing colors of floss you have. But it can be a bit dizzying to see so many similar shades of threads.

Wanted it to have actual threads. But it is very nice and contains all current skeins It will be very useful.

I like that I can look and see what colors I need

This is well worth the money for avid DMC Floss users. It will help you customize colors and quality is fantastic

So much Threaded goodness of 500 or so, DMC floss colors! Complete and the most current threaded color card released to date. All 35 new colors are included. While there have been comments about 16 missing colors, this is incorrect. A quick search yields the following explanation. All 16 colors are shown, along with thread samples: Quote “Those 16 threads are specific to Northern America and aren’t sold elsewhere in the world. Its due to the dyes they use. You tend not to find them used in commercial patterns for this reason. However, DMC made new threads to replace these elsewhere in the world, which are: 3880 replaced with 223 3881 replaced with 164 3882 replaced with 839 3883 replaced with 722 3884 replaced with 535 3885 replaced with 312 3886 replaced with 3685 3887 replaced with 208 3888 replaced with 3740 3889 replaced with 445 3890 replaced with 3766 3891 replaced with 995 3892 replaced with 740 3893 replaced with 543 3894 replaced with 907 3895 replaced with 646” I printed the above color info and placed it in my color card for reference. Note. The final page of threaded samples are complete. Some may feel that something is missing, but this is not the case. The light Effects and color variations are simply on the previous threaded sample page. All are included, so no worries. This threaded color card very useful as each color is represented by 9 or more threads. This is very helpful when matching floss color and sheen from, other brands, to DMC colors. (The electronic printed version of the colors is however, easier to use while at a store, vs bringing the entire threaded color card.) The threaded samples, on mine, are very well done, tidy and of high, actual floss quality. The index is very helpful in finding the location of the different colors as it’s in numeric order. Lastly, Although priced higher than buying direct, the $40 price is fair considering it’s always on back order and hard to find. If you, or someone you knows, loves to embroider, cross stitch, etc, than is tool is invaluable! Plus? It’s soooooo pretty! Lolol

Great except for the first row and second row have the same row of colors so I can’t identify anything in the first row because it is wrong.

If you are a stitcher you will love it!

Its what you need to match. What can I say...you need this to match most anything....I have thread that I used to do a pattern BUT it wasnt DMC and my friend wanted the cross stich so much....so I matched it with and.....Well it was a perfect solution. Ok, I am dilthering but it helped me do a second OWL cross stich with DMC thread and it was acually much nicer then the original.

Love it.Makes it quick to match colors and shades! Why so expensive? Saved points for it.

Just what I wanted.
