Subject: RE: BS: Wearing knotted hankies
And what about those knotted scarves that went over the back of the head and tied in front over the brow - like a reversed 'doorag' with the dangly bits tucked in underneath? All modelled so excellently by the ladies of the munitions factories in WWII....

My mother would be resplendent in one of those over her curlers all day on Saturday, so that her hair would be perfect for Sunday, when the relatives would almost certainly visit.
