DMC 561 to J&P Coats: Thread Conversion

J&P Coats 6211 is a close match for DMC 561 Very Dark Jade. The jade-and-gold combination that makes 561 effective in Asian lacquerware-inspired and Art Deco designs depends on the jade reading as distinctly cool-green rather than warm-green. Verify J&P Coats 6211 against a warm forest green and a cool dark teal to confirm it occupies jade's characteristic middle ground before using it in designs where the cultural or aesthetic reference to jade is central to the piece's meaning.
