missing DMC colours?

LauraloveSep 15, 2026, 5:09:03 PMHow To & Support

Trying to add DMC 3378, which is a current DMC colour -- but it says it's not found.

Is there a "version" of DMC that is supported / can it be updated to whatever the latest is?

Thanks for flagging this! I looked into it, and the reason 3378 won't add is that it isn't actually a standard DMC floss number, the DMC 33xx solid colors run 3325 through 3371, then jump to 3607, and there's no 3378 in DMC's lineup that I can see. So it's not a "version" issue; the app has the full current DMC solid range, that specific number just isn't one of them.

A couple of things worth checking:

  • Is it possible the number's a typo? Close ones that do exist are 3371 (Black Brown), 3778, or 3837 โ€” any chance it's one of those?

  • Is it from a specialty line like Color Variations (4-digit 4xxx), Satin, or Light Effects? Those use different codes and aren't part of the standard solid set.

If you can tell me where you saw 3378 (a pattern, a shop listing, DMC's site?), I'm glad to dig further, and if DMC ever does add a color we're missing, I'll get it into the library right away. In the meantime, you can also add it as a custom color.

Thanks again!

oops, my apologies! Typo on my part -- it's 3371 that I'm trying to add, and is coming up as "not found"!
