ABSTRACT:
An article of headwear convertible between use as a hat and a neck covering is provided. The article of headwear generally comprises a tubular covering of knitted fabric having a closeable side slit and a closeable end. When the side slit and end are both opened, the article is utilizable as a neck covering. When both are closed, the article is utilizable as a hat. If desired, when the side slit is closed but the ends are opened, the article may be formed into an armband for storage. In the preferred embodiment, folds may be formed in a crown portion of the hat to form a hat with a somewhat pointed or truncated crown. Methods of converting a skier's-type hat to an article of neckwear, or vice versa, are also described.
