Anchor 1036Antique Blue Ultra V

Anchor 1036 is #1D254C, RGB 29 37 76. The three beside it are the closest of the 445 Anchor threads, measured the way the editor measures a colour match.

The same colour in DMC, Madeira and Cosmo

Range	Code	Colour	How close	Distance
DMC	336	Indigo Blue	hard to tell apart	2.7
Madeira	904	Cornflower Blue VY D	close	3.3
Cosmo	168	no name	hard to tell apart	2.5

Each one is the nearest thread that range has, picked by measurement rather than read off a maker's conversion chart. The number is how far apart the two colours are on the scale the editor uses to match a thread to a picture; under 1 and nobody could tell them apart.

The colour on this page is our screen value for the thread, not the maker's. No thread maker publishes one, so every chart on the web is somebody's estimate, this one included. Use it to compare shades against each other, and buy from a real shade card.
