  • Patent number: 8185972
    Abstract: A head scarf with a crown portion and a tail portion is made by stitching together overlying front margin areas of body and lining pieces. This stitching is done along oppositely convex lines on both pieces, and these lines are brought into registry for sewing. One of the pieces is then folded to provide a convex edge of the stitched-together assembly, to place the pieces in face-to-face relation, and to give the assembly a three dimensional forehead-receiving shape in the vicinity of the front margin areas. A semicircular drawstring channel is formed, and the upper regions of the tail portion are drawn together while drawing the crown portion into a shape conforming to a wearer's head.

  • Patent number: 7707656
    Abstract: A head scarf has a main body and a lining that are made of flat planar flaccid fabric. It has a crown for covering a wearer's head and a tail that hangs down from the rear of the crown. The lining has front and rear margin areas attached along their lengths to the main body. The end points of the front margin area of the lining are flush with the end points of the crown portion of the main body. The lining has its greatest length, measured longitudinally, in a central longitudinal plane of the scarf. The length of the lining fabric measured between the front and rear margin areas is greater, by differential amounts that decrease progressively toward the end points, than the linear distance between the front and rear margin areas to enhance the ability of the scarf to conform to the shape of a wearer's head.

  • Publication number: 20080209614
    Abstract: A head scarf, formed of a main body and a lining, has a crown for covering a wearer's head and a tail that is adapted to hang down from the rear of the crown. The lining has front and rear margin areas attached to the main body. In a central longitudinal plane of the scarf, the length of fabric between the front and rear margin areas is greater, by a differential amount, than the linear distance between the front and rear margin areas to enhance the ability of the scarf to conform to the shape of a wearer's head. Corresponding differential amounts exist in longitudinal planes parallel to and spaced from the central longitudinal plane, and they decrease progressively from a maximum near the central longitudinal plane to about zero in longitudinal planes most distant from the central longitudinal plane. The front margin area of the lining is attached to the front margin area of the body by a convex line of stitching that establishes the differential amounts.
