DMC 893 to Sullivans: Thread Conversion

Sullivans 45246 is a close match for DMC 893 Light Carnation. For spring floral and cherry blossom designs where 893 provides the primary warm-pink petal body color, Sullivans 45246 is a workable alternative in most finished work. The close rating suggests some difference in the warm-salmon-pink character, which is most visible when comparing skeins directly. For designs where 893 appears in moderate quantities as a petal fill rather than in tiny highlight amounts, testing coverage and color quality on your specific fabric is a sensible precaution before committing to the full project.
