Lab is calculated from the sRGB table, not measured from physical floss. The simulation uses the same uncalibrated fabric model as the editor. Screen and dye-lot differences matter.

Choosing Tawny 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.
