Help Converting Weird Thread Brand

[sharayah]

Hello, I just recently acquired a box full of floss/thread from my mother. She sent me DMC, White Rose, and some other brand that has a weird symbol on it. I called my mom and asked what it was, and she said "walmart brand" floss. She doesn't know if it's based on DMC, Anchor or anything like that.

I have a bunch of different colours, but I would like to know if anyone has heard of this brand before. It has a D on it, and in the middle of it, it looks like an N or something. It is 100% cotton, six strands, 8.75 yards, and has the website Janlynn.com on the label. I went on the website, but it isn't very helpful in figuring out what this is based on. Example of number and colour: 368 and is a mustard yellow colour.

EDIT: found a picture of it on the website, but doesn't say what it's based on, unless I'm missing something: http://www.janlynn.com/detail.cfm?ID=4207

Ahh, thank you, this is perfect! I looked all over the website, but didn't see anything. Excellent, I appreciate it. ^_^

Yeah, that website doesn't really help you to find stuff. I only found it because it popped up on Google.

It's probably based on it own internal system and not off of anything else. I'd suggest getting a colour card for either DMC or Anchor and matching the colours as best you can based off of those. You're unlikely to find that the numbers or names correspond to anything though, or else they mightve been sued for copying!
