| Abstract: |
A bath glove is formed by weaving or knitting different yarns in a specific manner, so that a plurality of terry piles are evenly distributed over and rising from a surface of the bath glove by three different heights. The terry piles having the smallest height are tightened at their roots to each horizontally extend across and bind together the roots of two terry piles separately having the medium and the largest heights. The rising terry piles having the medium and the largest heights loosely overlap one another to give the bath glove a supple and elastic surface. The yarns for forming the terry piles having the medium height each is formed by sequentially twisting or tangling multiple nylon filaments together, and the yarns for forming the terry piles having the largest height each is formed by winding at least one surface filament around at least one core filament. The terry piles of different heights are soft to the touch and can catch more and finer foams among them for the bath love to effectively clean and massage a user's skin at he same time.

What is claimed is:
1. A bath glove comprising:
- a plurality of terry piles evenly distributed on a surface of said bath glove, said terry piles comprise sections of three different lengths, a first length, a second length, and a third length;
- first yarns forming said terry pile of said first length are tightened at roots of said first yarns during assembly so that each one of said first yarns crosses and binds together a root of one of a plurality of second yarns forming said terry pile of said second length and a root of one of a plurality of third yarns forming said terry pile of said third length, such that said terry pile of said second length and said terry pile of said third length rise from said surface of said bath glove; and wherein
- said second yarns of said second length comprise multiple nylon filaments, and
- said third yarns of said third length comprise at least one core filament and at least one surface filament wound around said at least one core filament.
