Method converts an alpaca association shade card into a usable palette for Experiment 626 by photographing swatches, sampling averaged RGB/hex values with a radius 21 selector, and exporting a JSON palette (examples include codes like MF202). Sixteen natural colors are produced and swapped into the generator to emit cross‑stitch charts; results render recognizably with stitch counts and alpaca color codes, but grayscale handling produces question marks for white because cream isn’t true white. The pipeline works with minor quirks.
