Pearsall Cardinal 12 Silk Thread

[captainpurple]

Hi All, 

Does anyone know of a good substitute for Pearsall's Cardinal 12 Silk? 

I still have some Pearsall's Silks and I have used other substitutes in the past for Purple (Uni Purple is very similar for example). 

I know you could probably substitute the Cardinal with a brown thread - because the "wet" colour of Cardinal is very brown in appearance (to my eye anyway).  

Was just wondering what other folks might use as a sub? 

Cheers, 

CP

If you contact Carol at Langley Threads you'll get an exact copy. They took over the manufacture of the whole Pearsal range. They will have a different number but I'm sure that they can help. Please mention my name as I worked with them to recreate some special colours a few years ago.

Perfect. Thanks very much for that. I'll give them a buzz.
