Conversion Notes
Cosmo 988 pairs well with Cosmo 987 (the 489 equivalent) for complete teal gradient projects. The internal consistency of Cosmo's teal family ensures that the gradient step between the two shades reads naturally, which is the most important factor when substituting across a family. The slight brand variation compared to DMC is less visible at this more readable, mid-range value than it would be in the very deep 489.
