Number Codes

[Coolfin]

Please could anyone let me know where I could find code numbers for the following.
Medium Blue, Mid Green, Pale Pink, Pale Lilac, Pale Blue, Pale Lemon, Medium Lilac, Dark Green, Medium Tan, Pale Green, Light Peach Pink, Medium Pink, Medium Purple, Pale Tan. I bought the chart which did not include the floss only the colours neded. I have tried on the internet but can't find them. Any help would be appreciated as the chart is called First Time Mother and would love to make it for my daughter-in-laws first baby.
Kind regards

This chart from Yarn Tree is also very good for finding particular threads. You can look by number or by color grouping so makes it a little easier. I found it by googling "DMC colors by family". I'm sure there are lots more out there also.

Who is the manufacturer of the chart?

Have you contacted them to get the color numbers?

[Coolfin]

Hi

I have the chart it is
The Craft Collection
First Time Mother
Ref 75306

I have checked the packet and it said that embroider floss was included so I think the floss has got mixed up with my other threads and I cant work out which ones they are so I thought I would just buy new.

[Reta]

So did the links that i put in help ?

[Coolfin]

Sorry Reta I thought I had answered you so many apologies.
I did check the link I found two but cant find the rest. This wll teach me to number the threads when removing them from the packet

Quite a lot of kit threads have the manufacturers own numbering, or their own color descriptions. So it may not work to just go by how they describe a color.
I would try and contact either the person you bought the kit from, or the manufacturer and see if you can get the DMC or Anchor conversion numbers. Maybe the seller forgot to include a page?

Its tough to just go by a color description- because DMC and Craft Collection may have different versions of what they consider Pale Pink, or Pale Tan to be.

Hi Maggie
I have tried the manufacturer but the number is unobtainable so I presume they are no longer in business.

Thank you so much for your help in my quest

Would looking at colour charts on Sewandso or other help you figure it out if you have a picture of the finished design? or is it way too complicated for that?

Best of luck!!!
