Do you want to switch your colors from DMC to Anchor (and viceversa)? We've got you covered! Check our DMC to Anchor thread conversion chart and use it as a guide to know what threads are equivalent.
Please bear in mind this is an approximation and the colors might differ from one brand to another. If you already started your cross-stitch project with a determined color, we recommend you to stick with it.
You can also download this thread chart for free. Get your thread chart in PDF and use it also to keep track of your threads!
