what do the letters following a color number mean?
Hi, Helen,
Thank you for reaching out with your question. As an example, are you referring to something like the V DK after 3801? If so, the V means very and the DK means dark. Other abbreviations you might see like this are MD for medium, or LT for light. Please let us know if you have any further questions, and have a great day!

What is the difference between this skein size 5 and a regular 6-strand? Is it the same, but this one just has more strands?
Hi, Mackenzie. This size 5 skein is made of a lustrous pearl cotton. It is a single strand and is used for different purposes than a standard cotton 6-strand cotton floss skein. For instance, you might use Pearl Cotton Size 5 for needlepoint, punch needle, or smocking; whereas 6-strand cotton is more commonly used in projects such as cross stitch and embroidery. Pearl Cotton comes in various sizes, depending on your project's needs.
Sincerely,
~Heather

I make temari balls and I mostly use DMC 5 perle cotton although I have a multitude of other threads & ribbons in assorted size & colors. I am having a problem obtaining a DMC color chart...do you have one?
Hi, Gloria. Thanks for the interest. Yes, we do have DMC color charts available here at Embroidery.com. We have two versions available: printed or with actual floss strands. Here's a link to both:

I am an avid needle pointer and like to use the DMV size 5 pearl cotton. In addition to what I have in my cart, can I please order one of every color you have. In this way I can see the colors for my next project before ordering.....I think it a wise investment to make. Unless you have a sampler to sell. Please let me know.
Thank you
Amy
