Specialist Says New Tufted Rugs Are High Quality There's something new under foot, in the form of high-quality moderate-cost rugs that are tuft ed, instead of woven, according to Mrs. Myrtle Carter, Oregon State college home furnishing specialist. All rug manufacturers are add ing equipment for tufting, a pro cess similar to hooking, to their plants, the specialist reports. Reason for this Is excellent consumer response to the tufted floor coverings, which gives more quality for the money that woven rugs, because of faster and therefore lower - cost manu facturing processes. More fiber goes into each rug, however, and the pile is higher. For this rea son, high - priced wool is not generally used for tufting. Most tufted rugs are made of cotton, rayon and blends at present. Special soil-resistant fin ishes are beginning to be applied to the synthetic fiber rugs, ac cording to the specialist. Need for such treatment was pointed out by the present trend toward light-colored rugs. Those con taining man - made fibers tended to soil faster because many syn thetics have a static attraction for dirt. Another trend in floor cover ings this season is toward more pattern and design, to comple ment the many plain textures be ing shown in other home furnish ings. Tweeds, florals, and con temporary treatments in pile rugs and metallic accents in smooth - surface carpeting are among present offerings, Mrs. Carter noted. Decorators are currently ad vising use of one patterned rug with others in coordinated solid colors, says Mrs. Carter. More room-size rugs are also being used. Though wool is still top favor ite as a rug fiber, selection of synthetics is widening consider ably, according to Mrs. Carter. And rayon and blends are now in second place. Cotton was sec ond until recently, but has been displaced. Pink is important in rugs, as well as in clothes, this season, the specialist pointed out, and blends well with the mauves, sandy beiges, greens, and blue greens which are also good now.
