Abstract

A tubular length of fabric has a plurality of V's cut on each end. A first end is pulled inside the fabric tube, the V's of the first end are aligned with the V's of the second end and the peripheral edges of the V's sewn together. A hole formed in one layer of the fabric forms the means to covert the garment from a closed-topped hat to a cylindrical tube which can be worn as a variety of garments including a neck gaiter, a face gaiter, an open-topped hat and a head band. The method of making the garment is also set forth.
