DMC 562 to Cosmo: Thread Conversion

Cosmo 901 is a close match sitting fractionally less saturated than DMC 562. The blue-green balance is correct, placing it in genuine jade territory rather than drifting toward emerald or teal, but the intensity reads slightly softer — less glowing, more dusty. Think of it as jade photographed on a slightly overcast day versus bright sun. In mixed-green designs and landscape fill work, this saturation difference blends away entirely. For projects where jade's stained-glass luminosity is the specific design goal — gemstone motifs, dramatic tropical foliage, Japanese garden centerpieces — stitch a test square in natural daylight before committing to a full skein. Cosmo's thread has a pleasant soft hand that many stitchers prefer for long sessions, which may partially offset the slight saturation difference in practice.
