## Good to know

 

 
- The palette has not been verified by a test stitch, so try the pale threads on a scrap of your fabric in daylight first. 
- Pale stitches are tinted on the colour and tablet charts so that they read as stitches and not bare fabric. The tint is a reading aid only; use the DMC shade in the thread list.
