Using Perler Dark Green in a design
Against Perler White the contrast is 4.6:1 (a clear edge); against Perler Cocoa only 2.6:1. That makes Dark Green an outline or shadow color for pale designs rather than a highlight on dark ones.
No other Perler color is within ΔE 3. The nearest, Perler Shamrock, is ΔE 7.5 away (similar), so a swap would show; buy enough Dark Green for the whole design.
Across brands, Artkal has the closest stand-in (Artkal SL2, ΔE 1.0) and Nabbi the furthest (Nabbi N16, ΔE 5.5). Nabbi's palette is small (30 colors), which limits its matches.
Pegboards and sizes for Perler Dark Green
Perler Dark Green belongs to Perler fuse beads (5 mm midi). It fits a 5 mm pegboard (29 × 29 pegs), and because Hama Midi, Artkal S or Nabbi beads are 5 mm too, it can share a board with them.
