Abstract

The hunter's hood with an adjustable face opening has fabric side panels and a fabric center panel that are sewn together. A face opening is encircled by a fabric tube that is sewn to the side panels and to the center panel by stitches. The fabric tube permits the passage of a persons head through the face opening. An elastic line passes through the right side panel, into the fabric tube, under the face opening, and out through the left fabric tube and side wall. An elastic upper line is mounted in the fabric tube above the face opening. An elastic line right end passes through a right loop end on the upper line. An elastic line left end passes through a left loop on the upper line. Tensioning the elastic line tensions the elastic upper line. Releasing tension on the elastic line releases tension on the upper line.
