Choosing Cranberry Very Light in a palette
This is a light digital swatch. Compare it against your cloth; pale stitches can disappear into a light fabric background. Keep the original chart’s light-to-dark relationships when swapping colors.
For a complete list use the DMC cross stitch chart. Use the color matcher for an image or hex value and the substitution tool to exclude threads you cannot obtain.
