One need not be a fabric ex
pert to lecognize a good towel
Just remembei to look foi a
close, firm undei weave and
dense, thick loops And be suie
that any non-teiry border de
sign is woven loosely enough
not to pucker after washing
This is the piactical side to
towel shopping
As for color and pattern,
you can have fun mixing,
matching, and contrasting Take
swatches of paint or wallpaper
and curtain fabnc along, if pos
sible, for the lange of towel
shades is so vast Also, you can
not cairy color in your mind'
To keep new towels fluffy,
fiesh, and absorbent, wash
them frequently Use the regu
lar cycle on the washer
Pastel towels, which aie
coloifast, may be washed with
other stuidy white and coloi
fast items Deep or daik towels
