I was just looking at some DMC 554 (lavendar-ish color) against fabric and asked DH for his opinion. He said, "I like that one, but not that one...too blue." Huh? Same color!
Lo and behold, I pulled the two skeins out and looked in full sunlight, and the "new" one (beige label with bar code) is decidedly pinker than the "old" one (black label).
Anybody have an explanation? Is this a one-off, or was that number reformulated at some point?
