DMC 3837 to Sullivans: Thread Conversion

Sullivans 45435 is rated close and captures the general depth and warm purple hue of Ultra Dark Lavender adequately for most design applications. The thread body differs slightly from DMC's twist, which can affect how densely the color packs into each stitch in large fills. For backstitch outlines around lighter purple fills and accent uses where precision of the warm-purple balance is less critical, Sullivans 45435 is a practical accessible option. Madeira's exact match is the preferred choice for large primary fills.
