DMC 520 to Cosmo: Thread Conversion

Cosmo 895 is a close match that may lean slightly cooler than the DMC original — a shift that dilutes some of the warm olive character that makes 520 read as deciduous forest rather than conifer or tropical. In landscape designs where multiple green families appear together, this cooler shift may integrate fine. In a pure fern green gradient where the warm undertone defines the family's identity from dark to light, test Cosmo 895 against your 522 and 523 threads to confirm the progression reads as coherent.
