Abstract The specification discloses a pillow which is cylindrical so as to be receivable under the neck thereby to support the head without disturbing the hair. The pillow is made by rolling up textile material to form a cylinder and enclosing the pillow in a snugly fitting case. The textile material is in the form of a long strip of woven material and a strip of plastic material is placed on top of the woven material at one end and then a batt of fibers is placed on the major portion of the remainder of the length of a woven material and this assembly is then rolled up from the end having the plastic strip thereon so that the plastic strip is in the radially inner part of the pillow and forms stiffening means therefor.
