The chart gives the matching Madeira number for every Anchor thread number, with a swatch to compare.
Where the last column says “Chart”, the match comes from a conversion chart. In all other rows it is the nearest Madeira shade, calculated from the screen colours; the percentage shows how close it is.
Thread colours from different brands are never exactly the same, and screen colours are an approximation. The lower the percentage, the more visible the difference. Compare important colours against the real thread.
Yes, for most colours there is a very similar shade. Replace a colour throughout the whole design and not just in one part, because small differences show when they sit side by side.
Rows marked “Chart” come from a conversion chart. All others are calculated from screen colours and are therefore an approximation. Check important colours against the real thread, ideally in daylight.
Take the thread key of your pattern and look up every number in the chart. Note the new numbers in the key before you go shopping, and stay with one brand within a design.
Every manufacturer dyes its own range. Some shades do not exist in another brand at all; the nearest shade is then visibly lighter, darker or of a different tint.
