Conversion Chart

From , former About.com Guide

Definition: These are charts printed by various manufacturers that list tapestry wool colors and their equivalents from other manufacturers. This is handy if you need to make a substitution in a project. If a project calls for “Brand X” but your local needlecraft supply only stocks tapestry wool from “Brand Z”, use a conversion chart to help select a similar color in the alternate brand.
