Conversion Notes

Anchor 382 is a close match for DMC 3980 Very Dark Brown. Both brands get you into the right depth of darkness, but the warm brown undertone that defines 3980 needs careful verification. Hold Anchor 382 next to DMC 310 (Black) — if you can't see any difference between them, the substitute has lost the brown character you need. If you can see a slight warmth, you're in the right territory for shadow applications in wood and earth palettes.
