Conversion Notes

Sullivans 45211 is a close match for DMC 801. For designs where 801 serves as dark backstitch outlining for warm-colored design elements — a technique that avoids the harshness of black outlines by staying within the color family's warmth — a close-rated substitute that reads slightly cooler would undermine the technique's effect. Testing Sullivans 45211 in its outlining role before use is especially worthwhile for this specific application.
