The Thyme watercolor color palette
This balanced, painterly palette is anchored by Soft Lime (#C6D191), the dominant wash across the thyme set. Light Olive and Deep Olive carry the midtones, and Deep Emerald (#5E7A52) grounds the shadows and outline work. Together they capture the soft, layered look of the original hand-painted artwork — copy any value below, or export the whole set as CSS variables, an Adobe ASE, GIMP or Procreate swatch file.
Cross-stitch & marker conversions
Because UsefulPix is built for crafters, every color is already matched to the nearest physical thread and marker, so you can take this palette off-screen. For embroidery and cross-stitch, the closest DMC floss are DMC 472 (Avocado Grn U Lt), DMC 822 (Beige Gray Light), DMC 368 (Pistachio Green Lt), DMC 3347 (Yellow Green Med). For marker and Copic work, reach for Copic YG93 (Grayish Yellow), Copic W-2 (Warm Gray No.2), Copic G94 (Grayish Olive), Copic G46 (Mistletoe). These are perceptual nearest-matches (CIEDE2000), so treat them as a faithful starting point and check a physical shade card for critical work.
