Disclaimer for pattern estimates and color guides
Yardage estimates and DMC color matching guides on Gloweli are practical crafting guidance. They help you plan a project, but they are not guarantees of a finished result.

Natural variation in needlework materials
DMC floss shades and fabric dye lots naturally vary between manufacturers and production batches. A color that looks identical on a chart may appear slightly different once stitched, especially under changing light. Please compare skeins from the same batch when a project depends on an exact match. Fabric count sizing calculators provide estimated finished dimensions. Weave shrinkage, washing, blocking, and your individual stitch tension all affect the final size, so measure your own work as you go and adjust your plans accordingly.
