DAvID W. oDIoENE, or ELIZABETH, NEW JERSEY.

UMBRELLA AND PARASOL TIE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 260,227, dated June 27, 1882,

Application tiled December 27, 1881. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern: v

Be it known that I, DAvID Vv'. ODIoENE, of Elizabeth, in the county of Union and State of New Jersey, have invented an Improvement in Umbrella and Parasol Ties, of which the following is a specication.

The strip of Woven material or tape that has heretofore been employed to surround the umbrella or parasol has had a ring at the end to pass over a button and keep the fabric of the umbrella or parasol tightly together when rolled up. The ring has usually been made of metal, japanned, and in some instances the ring has been covered with thread or silk crocheted upon the same. The fabric or strip forming the tie has been passed through the ring, and the lapping end sewed to the body ofthe strip or to the crocheted covering of the ring. This sewing is very liable to pull out,

and it is objectionable in appearance and fre-A quently it interferes with the proper buttonin g of the ring over the button.

My invention is to remove the diiculties 'heretofore experienced, to secure the strip of fabric to the ring in the most durable manner,

and cause the parts to be dat, so as to pass easily behind the button. and at the same time A to improve the appearance of the tie.

and the end folded back upon the body, as at c. The parts are then held in place by interlocked stitches, similar to button-hole stitches, sewed through the fabric of the tie and passing around inside the ring, as shown at c, so

that the tie is bound firmly to the ring, and the buttonhole stitching is highly ornamental and protects the fabric ot' the tie from wear Where it passes around the ring. The loop e, of similar material to the tie, is passed around the ring and sewed to the same with the butlton-hole stitching, as aforesaid. This loop aids in drawing the ring over the button or removing it in unbuttouing the tie, as usual.

It is generally preferable to cover the entire ring with threads interlocked in the manner known as the button-hole stitch, and this can be donein a sewingmachine having a circular feed at the same time that the loop and tie are attached, asA aforesaid.

I claim as my inventionl. The tie for umbrellas or parasols, having a strip or tape passed through a ring and se cured by threads passing through the material and within the ring similar to a buttonhole stitch, substantially as set forth.

2. In an umbrella or parasol tie, the combil nation, with the strip of material and the ring through which it is passed, of a second strip in the form ot' a loop passed through the ring, and interlocked stitching through both strips and around the bend of the fabric within the ring similar to button-hole stitching, substantially as set forth.

3. In an umbrella or parasol tic, a ring and a strip ot' material passing through the same, in combination with interlocked stitching similar to a button-hole passing through the material, and also forming a covering for the ring, as set forth.

Signed by me this 24th day of December, A.
