Abstract

A towel clip holds a towel in place on a chair back of an outdoor chair such as a beach chair or lounge chair. The clip includes a generally C-shaped semirigid clip member, a pair of side-by-side first clamping members of generally spherical shape on one end of the C, and a second pair of generally spherically shaped clamping members on the other end of the C. The first pair of the clamping members are arranged side by side and the second pair of clamping members are arranged front to rear so that the respective pair of clamping members extend along mutually orthogonal axes. The C-shaped clip is made from a plastic material having a recovery force that holds the spherically-shaped clamping members under slight tension normally so that one pair of clamping members interlocks within a narrow space between the other pair of clamping members and vice versa. The clip ends can be spread apart and slipped over the top of a chair back and around a towel draped over the chair back and held frictionally by the clip so that the towel stays in place on the chair back, yet the clip allows sufficient slippage of the towel between the clamping members to prevent pinching or other towel damage.
