Abstract: A neck pillow converter is disclosed. A fabric tube with openings at each end also has a zippered opening in the body of the tube. A sleeved garment can be easily and efficiently rolled up to form a single long fabric item, and inserted into the zippered opening, preventing it from unrolling or becoming rumpled and disorderly as would happen if the garment were simply pulled through the tube. An optional improvement is to make the tube out of highly elastic fabric which can accommodate a variety of garment sizes, keeping smaller garments in place while allowing the use of larger garments without excessive compression. When not in use, the fabric tube is easily and efficiently folded or rolled for storage and transport. A method for using the neck pillow converter which is easy, efficient, and minimizes wrinkling and wear and tear on the sleeved garment is also disclosed.
