LONDON, (ONI)-Fluorescent yarn which, when activated' by ultra-violet rays, causes the pattern to glow brilliantly, was one of the novelties on view.at a collection of United Kingdom designed furnishing fabrics cohibited in London recently.

of
Designs, on the whole, are simple, the general motif being based on variations of the, stripe and cheek themes. Metallic threads are introduced into some of the curtainings. Textured yarns are specially woven to give a curly, sheep-like ap- pearance. Four stages of texture—boucle gimp, snarl and plain yarns----combine in one kind of cheek pattern. In another, the, three-dimensional effect is achieved in colours having low, middle and high scale range.
Similar fabrics were used for curtainings and the complete upholstering of
