Conversion Notes

Anchor 398 is a close match for DMC 168, though some stitchers find Anchor's version reads fractionally warmer — a subtle shift that's invisible in most contexts but can be noticeable in designs where 168 is doing precise neutral work alongside cool-toned companions. For atmospheric perspective in landscapes and Scandinavian-inspired geometric designs where the true neutral quality is the point, test Anchor 398 on your project fabric in natural daylight before committing to a large fill area.
