Conversion Notes

Madeira 0713 is an exact match for DMC 552. The slightly tighter Madeira twist can produce a marginally thinner line in surface embroidery techniques like satin stitch, but for cross-stitch applications the difference is effectively invisible. For the five-step violet gradient (550 through 554), using the complete Madeira series (0714, 0713, 0711, 0710) maintains family coherence across the gradient — Madeira's violet family is well-matched internally as well as against the DMC originals.
