Abstract
A free-hand tubular towel has at its upper end an elastic band for encircling and gripping a user's arm at a location above or slightly below the elbow and has an enlarged lower end portion that drapes loosely over the user's hand and can be reverse-folded over the upper end portion to uncover the hand. The lower end portion can be secured in retracted position over the tubular upper end portion of the towel by interengagement of coacting patches of a hook-and-pile fastener, one being located near the upper end of the towel and the other being located near the lower end of the towel.
