DMC to Anchor Floss Conversion Chart

DMC to Anchor Floss Conversion Chart



DMC thread or floss is very popular with cross stitchers and although DMC themselves do not sell to consumers directly, most craft shops and internet / mail order suppliers can source DMC threads. There are now several hundred different colour shades within the DMC range. If you find it easier to obtain Anchor floss, it’s great to be able to easily convert from one type of thread to the other. DMC have a wider range of threads, but each stitcher is usually fiercely loyal to their own favourite brand! Since there is some variation between the colours provided by both companies, we have provided conversion charts from Anchor to DMC, and one from DMC to Anchor below:
