CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so use the DMC column for those brands.
These lengths are a guide. It's worth buying an extra skein or two of your main colours to allow for mistakes and tension differences.
HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Gamma, Luca-S and Sullivans. Pick your brand when you start the project.
