Old Clark's Anchor Shade Comparison Chart
|
  
|
|
|
Hello Everyone!
I hope you can help. Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the conversion chart for the old Clark's Anchor shade numbers to the present day Anchor stranded cotton shades? I have just come across some old embroidery and cross stitch patterns from 1950s that list the old Clark's Anchor shades which bear no resemblance to the Anchor shade numbers of today. Thanks Elizabeth

It's here:
<p>http://www.coatscrafts.co.uk/NR/rdonlyres/2931BF5D-775A-472B-B87E-A0B5E2297CA7/82003/AnchorStrandedCottonnumbersOldToNew.pdf
<p>Unfortunately this chart wasn't much help to me. I have an old two-digit color number that I'm trying to find a modern day equivalent for. All the numbers on the chart are three-digit - not old enough I guess.

I am trying to match some colours for an old project my mother has 'rediscovered'. Is this chart still available as I can't find it on the site?

Hi all, I also have recently discovered some transfers mostly pre 1920 one in particular I would like to embroider, I have the transfer (No.15444-Peacock Panel) and original coloured picture with instructions however the colour code numbers given bear no relationship to todays colour chart numbers. Do you have the conversation charts going back nearly 100 years?
