Blomster - DMC Conversion

Posted by Florindae (My Page) on

I have some wonderful Skandanavian Christmas Cross stitch designs that require "Blomster" embroidery yarn.
Unfortunately I do not have access in our small isolated community to this specific Danish Embroidery yarn. Does anybody know what the equivalent colors are for DMC Embroidery yarn ?
I have put off for years making my projects because of the lack of access to the proper yarn but I would like to start working on it now.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

I've never heard of that floss.Just go to the dmc website and see what you can find there.They have lots of conversions,and they also have a website for the UK.

Here's another suggestion!!! Go to www.123stitch.com
You'll have to get a name and password to post,but that's easy.Then ask about the floss over there.Those ladies are a wealth of information and they are from all over the world,and will probably have an answer for you within the hour.HTH

Thank you Kathi!!
I did check out the websites you had suggestet and found out that the elusive Blomster yarn is also known as Danish Flower Thread. I have found now a conversion chart.
Thanks again for your help.

Check out this site, they seem to have conversion charts for almost every brand out there.
