% A we® / by Jo Ann. What’s new in carpeting? Shag pile carpeting is here! Long the overseas favourite, Shag is installed in many new luxury apartments and homes in the United States. Because it softens the effect of straight lines, sharp corners, it’s especially appropriate for homes with a modern decor. Thousands of wool strands, each inches long, give your living room a luxurious, velvety effect Hubbers Furniture & Carpets carry this new broadloom carpeting called "New Frontier.” It's all wool, by Bremworth, and comes m five different colours. A large sample of each shade is brought to your home . . . you're also provided with a free quotation on the total cost of carpeting and installation by Hubbers own workroom. You may make an appointment for samples and a quotation by calling Hubbers at 50-672. No obligation. Or drop by their showroom at 792 Colombo St., corner of Colombo and Oxford Terrace. ☆☆ ☆ ☆ Have you heard about non-reflective glass? Used mainly in picture frames, it provides excellent protection for your photo or painting. But non-reflective glass doesn’t reflect light and glare as most glass does. Your picture is always easy to see, no matter where you place it in your home. This special glass is readily available in Christchurch at Fisher's, although very few places have even heard about it. It’s surprisingly inexpensive, because Fisher’s import their own from England. And it’s available for almost any picture, up to sizes 30in x 40in. Look for their special display next time you're in Fisher's 691 Colombo Street. Open Friday nights. ☆☆ ☆ ☆ You'll see many knitted garments this year with the Fair Isle design. Sometimes it incorporates 3 or 4 bright colours in addition to a neutral background . . . goes quite well with many items in your wardrobe. But quite a lengthy project if you decide to hand knit. Last week, one Christchurch knitter completed a zippered cardigan with collar and detachable hood in the Fair Isle design. It required less than 4 hours knitting time! Her secret, of course, is the use of the Toyota Knitting Machine, the only machine that has every feature. Shes estimates her cardigan would require at least 34 hours hand knitting time. You’ll find this Fair Isle cardigan on display this week at the Bernina Sewing Centre, 5 Victoria Street. At the same time, she’ll provide on-the-spot comments about how she handled this project. Bernina Sewing Centre opens each morning at 9.00 a.m. They’re open Friday nights. ☆☆ ☆ ☆ What do you need for the races? Binoculars are a must, of course, to bring the action closer but do you know the right ones to choose? It pays to visit a specialist’s shop like Photo Optics where Len Barnard can explain in simple terms the difference between number ratings (i.e. 8 x 30: 8 x 40; 7 x 50) and what they mean in magnification and brightness. Whether you are seeking binoculars for bird watching, star gazing, deer stalking, or racing, make sure that you get the right ones the first time. Visit Len Barnard at Photo Optics for the best advice it costs no more. Photo Optics is on the corner of New Regent and Armagh Streets. Open Friday nights.
