DMC 402 to Cosmo: Thread Conversion

Cosmo 2516 is a close match for DMC 402 Very Light Mahogany, and some stitchers find the Cosmo version reads a hair more orange than the DMC. In a standalone application where 402 isn't part of a gradient, this slight difference is unlikely to matter. In a four- or five-step mahogany sequence, even a small hue shift at the highlight end can make the gradient feel like it drifts off course — check Cosmo 2516 against your other mahogany shades before committing.
