Conversion Notes
Cosmo 105 is rated close for DMC 3326, with the close rating reflecting a potential slight warmth drift in Cosmo's version of this pink. The DMC original's defining quality is its neutral pink balance: warm without being peachy or salmon, clean without being cool-mauve. Cosmo 105 can lean a tiny bit warmer in some dye lots, edging slightly toward salmon territory in certain lighting conditions. For small accent uses and detail work where this thread appears in limited quantities, the warmth shift is unlikely to register at normal viewing distance. For large blocks of solid pink where the eye has time to register the full hue across a broad field — a wide rose petal area, a border band in a sampler, a large background fill in a child's design — the slight warmth shift may become visible and could read as a peachy rather than purely pink tone. Compare Cosmo 105 against your other palette threads in natural daylight before committing to any large-area application where the neutral pink balance of DMC 3326 is the specific design intent.

How We Validate This Match
This Cosmo page is meant to help you shortlist a replacement quickly, then verify the physical skein before you mix brands in the same stitched area.
- Methodology
- This comparison uses the site's source-of-truth record for DMC 3326, the stored Cosmo equivalent, and the saved close rating before rendering the page copy.

- Close cross-brand match. Treat it as a shortlist, not proof that the physical threads will be visually identical under every fabric and light condition.
- Source basis
- Approximate cross-brand floss mapping. Treat it as lower-confidence until you compare the physical Cosmo skein against the DMC reference.

Decision guide
When to trust DMC 3326 to Cosmo 105
This page is strongest as a decision aid, not as a guarantee that two branded skeins will vanish into each other without testing.
Best for
- + Replacing missing floss when DMC 3326 is unavailable and Cosmo 105 is good enough after a stitched sample check.
- + Shortlisting a Cosmo substitute before you buy skeins, especially if your project can tolerate small differences in sheen or dye lot.
- + Comparing this Cosmo candidate against the other conversions and nearby DMC shades linked from the page before you commit to a full swap.
Watch for
- ! Close matches are not safe to assume interchangeable in focal areas without a physical test on your fabric.
- ! Brand sheen, strand thickness, and project lighting can make DMC 3326 and Cosmo 105 look further apart than the stored match rating suggests.
- ! If the design depends on smooth gradients or skin-tone transitions, compare this swap against the neighboring DMC shades before you substitute a large block.
Before you commit
- Compare DMC 3326 and Cosmo 105: lay the physical skeins together in daylight before you mix brands in the same stitched area.
- Test on your project fabric: stitch a small sample so fabric color and stitch density reveal whether the match still holds at full coverage.
- Keep a fallback ready: if the swap feels off, use the linked related DMC shades or another brand conversion instead of forcing the closest stored match.
