Abstract

A towel has a linear top edge of a first arm cover affixed to a base sheet at an angle with respect to the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet. A bottom, arced edge of the first arm cover is affixed to the base sheet forming a first arm channel having a first shoulder central of the base sheet and having a first wrist opening proximal to a first edge of the base sheet. A linear top edge of a second arm cover is affixed to the base sheet at an angle with respect to the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet. A bottom, arced edge of the second arm cover is affixed to the base sheet forming a second arm channel that has a second shoulder opening central to the base sheet and a second wrist opening proximal to a second edge of the base sheet.

Claims (11)

1. A towel comprising:

a base sheet having a top lengthwise edge, a first widthwise edge and a second widthwise edge, the top lengthwise edge being longer than the first widthwise edge, the top lengthwise edge being longer than the second widthwise edge, and the first widthwise edge being substantially the same length as the second widthwise edge;

a first arm cover, a top edge of the first arm cover is linear, the top edge of the first arm cover is affixed to the base sheet, a first end of the top edge of the first arm cover is attached at a first distance from the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet nearest to a center of the base sheet and a second end of the top edge of the first arm cover is attached at a second distance from the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet nearest to the first widthwise edge of the base sheet, the first distance being less than the second distance, a bottom, arced edge of the first arm cover is affixed to the base sheet forming a first arm channel having a first shoulder opening towards the center of the base sheet and having a first wrist opening coincident with the first widthwise edge of the base sheet; and

a second arm cover, a top edge of the second arm cover is linear, the top edge of the second arm cover is affixed to the base sheet, a first end of the top edge of the second arm cover is attached at the first distance from the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet nearest to the center of the base sheet and a second end of the top edge of the second arm cover is attached at the second distance from the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet nearest to the second widthwise edge of the base sheet, a bottom, arced edge of the second arm cover is affixed to the base sheet forming a second arm channel having a second shoulder opening towards the center of the base sheet and having a second wrist opening coincident with the second widthwise edge of the base sheet.

2. The towel of claim 1 , wherein the base sheet, the first arm cover and the second arm cover are made from cloth.

3. The towel of claim 2 , wherein the cloth is terry cloth.

4. The towel of claim 2 , wherein the first arm cover is affixed to the base sheet by stitching, and the second arm cover is affixed to the base sheet by stitching.

5. The towel of claim 1 , wherein the top edge of the first arm cover is affixed to the base sheet at an angle such that the second end of the top edge of the first arm cover that is furthest from the second arm cover is further from the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet than the first end of the top edge of the first arm cover, and the top edge of the second arm cover is affixed to the base sheet at an angle such that the second end of the top edge of the second arm cover that is farthest from the first arm cover is farther from the top lengthwise edge of the base sheet than the first end of the top edge of the second arm cover.

6. The towel of claim 1 , wherein the second end of the top edge of the first arm cover and an end of the bottom, arced edge of the first arm cover are coincident with the first widthwise edge of the base sheet and a length of the top edge of the first arm cover is greater than a length of the bottom, arced edge of the first arm cover, thereby forming an angled shoulder opening in the first arm cover at an end of the first arm cover that is closest to the second arm cover such that the first end of the top edge of the first arm cover is closer to the center of the base sheet than is a second end of the bottom, arced edge of the first arm cover.

7. The towel of claim 1 , wherein the second end of the top edge of the second arm cover and an end of the bottom, arced edge of the second arm cover are coincident with the second widthwise edge of the base sheet and a length of the top edge of the second arm cover is greater than a length of the bottom, arced edge of the second arm cover, thereby forming an angled shoulder opening in the second arm cover at an end of the second arm cover that is closest to the first arm cover such that the first end of the top edge of the second arm cover is closer to the center of the base sheet than is a second end of the bottom, arced edge of the second arm cover.

8. The towel of claim 1 , wherein the base sheet, the first arm cover and the second arm cover are made from the same material.
