DMC 899 to Sullivans: Thread Conversion

Sullivans 45250 is a close match for DMC 899 Medium Rose. As a primary fill color in garden rose and climbing rose designs, coverage consistency matters — Sullivans' strand characteristics are slightly different from DMC, so maintaining even stitch tension in large pink fill areas is worth monitoring. The close rating indicates some color difference, most visible when comparing skeins in daylight, though in finished work on most fabric types the distinction is subtle.
