DMC 517 to Anchor: Thread Conversion

Anchor 162 is an exact match for DMC 517 Wedgwood, preserving the characteristically restrained, grey-influenced blue that makes this shade distinctive. One practical caution: Anchor 162 is also cited as an equivalent for DMC 825, meaning the same Anchor number may appear in patterns calling for two different DMC blues. If your project uses both 517 and 825, verify that Anchor 162 genuinely serves both roles — or source separate Anchor numbers for each — to avoid collapsing the distinction between them.
