I’m trying to find out how many strands of DMC standard floss is equivalent to the different sizes of DMC pearl cotton. I know size 3 is equivalent to 6 strands and 12 is equivalent one strand from what I’ve read on line. But I’m wanting to find out what size 5 and size 8 or equivalent. Can anyone help me with this please?
