While a perennial favorite, blue has been among the rug industry's consistent color stories -- and today that shade is back in vogue in a big way. In fact, rug buyers have plenty of fresh blue designs to choose from this fall. While some of the latest designs feature Classic Blue, they also span the blue color spectrum from denim to cobalt to royal blue and powdery tones.
