<p>The invention provides that coloured yarn poms colour coded according to a six digit coding and are arranged in a particular manner to enable colour selection for carpets to be performed by designers, architects and the like without actually examining a sample carpet or a portion of carpet. The colour poms are arranged in groups of which one pom defines the base colour, and the remaining poms in that group are shaded poms, tint poms and tone poms. The triangular layout provides that the base colour bunch is at the apex (30) of a right angled triangle with the shades extending down one of the smaller sides (20) of the tiangle and the tints extending down the other side (22) with the tones lying between the shades and the tints. The triangle is a 45o/right angled triangle. Each pom preferably comprises a plurality of appropriately coloured yarns held by a sleeve so that the yarn ends spread mushroom fashion from one end of the sleeve and a second sleeve can be slid over the first sleeve to compress the spread ends into a flat surface which can be presented to a spectrophotometer for identifying the colour density in the said flat face.</p> |
