DMC 890 to Sullivans: Thread Conversion

Sullivans 45243 is a close match for DMC 890 Ultra Dark Pistachio Green. For designs using 890 primarily as a deep shadow anchor in Christmas and woodland greenery, Sullivans 45243 performs adequately in most finished work. The depth of pigment at this very dark value helps minimize visible brand differences. For backstitch outlining of green-family designs where 890's specific dark green character keeps the outline within the color family, testing Sullivans 45243 confirms whether the outline reads as green rather than neutral at your chosen fabric count and thread weight.
