DMC colors for UK Pooh books?

Post by BearguyVA »

Hi all...

New here so I hope I have this in the right place... :)
I have one of the Winnie the Pooh cross stitch books done by Debbie Minton, and published through Designer Stitches UK, about ten years ago. The cover says it's DS1- Winnie the Pooh Alphabet Book.
The book gives both DMC and Anchor color codes for everything EXCEPT for Pooh!!! All it shows for him is "CT1 Gold - please refer to page 48." When I do, it shows that DSUK had their own line of custom colors... and "CT1 Gold" was their color for Pooh.
I remember that some of my local craft stores had some of these Pooh pattern books years ago, but I haven't seen them in a while.
Anyone know what the DMC code is for Pooh?
Thanks much!
