Is there a thread conversion chart for the Weekenders Cross Stitch Kits to DMC? I have stitched for over 40 years, but I am finding more and more of these kits do not have enough of certain color thread. -- Sharon from Longview, TX

- Hi Try looking at www.cyberstitches.com there are various conversions on their site. Hope this helps -- Amanda Williamson from United Kingdom -- Aug 05
- The only thing that I could find says that JCA uses the DMC numbers. Here is what one site said: "JCA, Inc. --------- This company produces kits that are titled Banners Tie-ups, Simplicity, and Weekenders. These kits all use DMC numbers for the floss listing (note that white is listed as code 200 for some reason)." -- Jan in AR from Hot Springs Village -- Aug 05
- I would guess for the "old" kits that I have, you take the 3 off of the numbers giving you the DMC number. Thanks for your help! -- Sharon from Longview,TX -- Aug 06

About Copyrights:
Copyright patterns may not be copied and given to someone else. It's against the law and it's dishonest. On the Internet, one copy can quickly turn into one million which basically takes away the need for people to buy the patterns, which puts the designers out of business. You can give away, trade, or sell the original leaflet though.
In the case of Crosstitch.com patterns, which are by subscription, all patterns are for the members personal use only and may not be given away or re-distibuted in any manner.
