Batch thread color converter
A customer's design lists another brand? Paste its thread numbers and get the matching numbers in the brands you stock, in stitch order. Print it as a color sheet for the machine or add everything to your order list.
How it works
- Paste the color list. Copy the thread numbers from the customer's color sheet or the design's stop sequence. Lines like "Stop 3: 1922" or "1. 1147 Red" are fine, and HEX values work too.
- Pick the brands you stock. Your choice is remembered on this device and used everywhere on the site.
- Use the sheet. Each stop shows the closest thread in each of your brands with a match rating. Print it for the machine, copy it into an email, download it as CSV or add every thread to your order list.
Frequently asked questions
Can I convert a whole design's thread colors at once?
Yes. Paste every thread number from the design's color sheet, in stitch order, and the batch converter lists the closest color in each brand you stock for every stop. You can print it as a color sheet for the machine, copy it, download it as CSV or add all the threads to your order list.
What can I paste?
Thread numbers one per line or separated by commas. Lines such as "Stop 3: 1922", "1. 1147 Red" or "Isacord 1902" work, so you can paste straight from most color sheets. A brand name on a line overrides the brand you picked, and a HEX value such as #1e3a8a is matched as a color.
Does it remember the brands I stock?
Yes, on this device. The brands you choose are saved in your browser and listed first everywhere on ThreadLookup: in the converter, on every color page and in search. There is no account and nothing is sent anywhere.
