Rope-A-Towel
 
Purpose of the Invention:
Rope-A-Towel is a product that can be worn around an individual’s waist, neck or other desired area to have a towel readily available whenever needed. This unique item assists users when cooking, working out, grilling, playing sports, gardening and various other times when a towel is needed by utilizing a patented attachment that keeps the towel within reach. This innovative item is ideal for use in the kitchen, gym, yard, while grilling, working out or whenever one may utilize a traditional towel.
Problem[s] the Invention Solves:
  Many times when performing certain tasks, one may need a towel but often finds one out of reach. While playing golf, at the gym, in a boat, or preparing food in a kitchen, standard towels can easily become misplaced or soiled. On the golf course, towels are often needed but not available to dry hands on the tee box, in the fairway or on the putting green, as well as keeping the golf ball clean. In the gym, one’s towel may easily fall onto the unsanitary floor, contaminating the item with harmful bacteria. Reaching for a towel while fishing may result in one picking up a wet, unusable towel from the bottom of the boat. When gardening or mowing the grass, a person may need a convenient way to wipe perspiration from their neck and face. In the kitchen, a person may want a simple way to wipe their hands or to dry an object. When putting on makeup, particles of eye shadow, foundation and similar items can easily fall onto one’s top, staining and damaging clothing. Having a durable towel that can easily be affixed around one’s waist or neck will assist individuals in being ready if a towel is needed when completing a variety of tasks or participating in multiple activities.
Detailed Description of the Invention:
  Rope-A-Towel is an article that a user may wear around their waist or neck to have a towel easily accessible at all times. This product is comprised of a soft velour or cotton terry cloth towel affixed to an adjustable lanyard. The lanyard is adjustable to accommodate different sizes and includes a special breakaway feature to snap on and off in an instant. A utility hook may also be found on one area of the product for use with keys, gym card or IDs, etc. This product is machine washable and reusable. And, since it lays flat when in use, it also is a unique marketing tool to advertise corporate logos, designs or slogans via screen printing. It may be produced in various sizes and colors. The exact dimensions, materials used for construction and method of operation of Rope-A-Towel may vary upon manufacturing.
