A swaddling towel has a major dimension and a minor dimension and fasteners are provided on the towel for securing the towel around a neck of a caregiver so that the towel may depend from the neck of the caregiver. First and second cooperating fasteners are spaced apart along the minor dimension and third and fourth cooperating fasteners are spaced apart along the major dimension. Securing the towel using the first and second cooperating fasteners, spaced along the minor dimension, results in the towel depending from the neck of the caregiver in the direction of the major dimension, facilitating wrapping of a new-born/baby. Securing the towel using the third and fourth cooperating fasteners, spaced along the major dimension, results in the towel depending from the neck of the caregiver in the direction of the minor dimension, facilitating wrapping of an infant/toddler.

A multi-purpose travel garment facilitates upright sleep and access to travel and sleep related items during travel. The garment is a poncho and is fabricated in a material composition that is warm and spacy. The garment includes body and neck cavities that retain neck and torso supports for optimal support of the torso and head while sleeping in an upright position. The garment also provides pouches that are easily accessible and contain travel related items. The garment also includes a head portion that cushions and supports the head, while also selectively covering the eyes to block light during sleep. A body and head adjustment mechanism, such as a drawstring, adjusts the size of the garment. A container compacts to stow in the pouches and expands for functionality. A pump generates a fluid for filling the supports. A channel carries and conceals circuitry form an external electronic device.

A multi-use garment includes a generally rectangular body of fabric material, a first and second arm hole defined through the body of fabric material and symmetrically disposed side to side. A first and a second pocket may be provided as well as a plurality of connecting elements and/or sleeve fastening elements.

A user adaptable garment is based upon a flexible tubular body, generally of a cloth construction, which can be configured into a number of forms. By using pairs of matching clasps and clasp receptacles, preferably of a toggle design, a user can pull lower edge of the garment to an upper edge. The garment can be held in this position by securing the clasps with the corresponding clasp receptacles. By folding parts of the garment in different patterns, by rotating the garment, or through a combination of similar steps, the garment can function as a sleeveless top, a cape, a throw, a shawl, a halter and a number of other items as imagined by the user.

A woven fabric formed of a first set of yarns extending in a first direction, woven together with a second set of yarns extending in a second direction. The first set includes first conductors, while the second set includes second conductors. The first and second conductors cross over one another at crossing points. At each crossing point, a non-conductive element is disposed directly between the first and second conductors so as to provide a physical barrier between the first and second conductors. At some crossing points, a physical electrical connection is provided between crossing conductors in order to provide a permanent connection between the conductors. Non-conductive tie yarns are provided to fix the conductors in position. The structure provides a robust yarn with minimized risk of short circuiting between crossing conductors which are intended to be kept separate.

A sleeve cuff is provided for a sleeve comprising an anterior patch affixed to the sleeve and covering at least a portion of a cutout in the sleeve, a distal strap affixed to the sleeve and spanning over at least a portion of a cutout in the sleeve, and the distal strap overlapping at least a portion of the anterior patch to form an aperture for receiving a thumb therethrough. The sleeve cuff has a plurality of configurations, including at least a closed configuration where the aperture is closed and minimizes the wearer's exposure to wind and air elements therethrough, and an opened configuration where the aperture is opened and minimizes the air penetration around the received thumb.
