Granny Smith Apples
I'm looking at a chart for a sampler I want to change slightly. It
features a bowl of Red Delicious apples, but I want to make them Granny Smith. Would someone who's more familiar with the different DMC colors than I be able to suggest some good colors to use for them? -- Suze Cat hair? That's just an embellishment.

DMC 704 is good
907 is good 471 is the best, with 470 being used sparingly for darker areas 772 would be a good highlight with any of the above. Matched in the sun to a Granny Smith. :-) Your Granny Smith may vary. Dianne

Dianne If I had a Granny Smith on hand I probably could have figured it out, though I still appreciate help from those with more DMC color experience than me. :-) Granny Smith are my absolute favorite apples, since I like mine tart and crisp. But DH and I have just been shopping hit or miss lately and keep forgetting apples. Thanks for all the information, everyone.  -- Suze Cat hair? That's just an embellishment.
