    Hawthorne Threads have a great page with all the aurifil threads displayed. It may be of help

    roisinom...

    That's a nice site!

    So it's great to see the names alongside the Aurifil #'s .

    The colors still don't come up as good as I wish - at least for that "light blue grey"... it looks a nice grey on my monitor - but dang, it's blue in real life.

    I bookmarked the page ... but I don't think fabric.com has all of those colors (maybe they do... but dang, that Hawthorne list seems huge!) ...

    I hope we can still make this list... maybe someone else feels like doing some research work on it!

    Seems that the #2370 I like is called Sandstone....

    The answer is : go to red rock threads dot com. (One word). Once there, go to aurifil Mako cotton , then on the left side of the page click on thread conversion table under the information heading. There is a list of the thread numbers and both the old and new names. Aurifil recently changed names, but not numbers. Hope this helps.
