DMC 826 to Cosmo: Thread Conversion

Cosmo 150 is a close match for DMC 826, with the key difference being Cosmo's silkier thread finish, which gives their medium blue a slightly more luminous or vivid appearance in person. For designs that benefit from a bright, contemporary feeling — modern motifs, pop art interpretations, children's designs — this extra luminosity may be an asset. For naturalistic sky and water work where a matte, atmospheric quality is preferred, DMC or Madeira may serve the design better. Test a swatch before committing to large-area fills.
