Do you always keep

no i dont but i havent heard of anyone else doing it so maybe its my area or generation or something

I do keep a hankerchief but not always. During summer I love to have it in my back pocket. Yes, i use it to wipe my sweat. I also use it to fan myself if its really hot. I also use it as a headband or a pony tail. LOL I do a lot of things to my hanky. Take care =)

i have a little handkerchief for my eyeglasses and sunglasses...to clean them with. i usually keep them in my purse or in my car...

Most people in this country no longer use handkerchiefs. They use tissues like Kleenex instead. I belong to the old school and always carry a handkerchief. One reason is that if I leave a tissue in my pocket when the garment is washed, the resulting lint gets all over the whole load. This does not happen with a handkerchief. Another is that a handkerchief can be washed and used over and over again.

I don't keep a handkercheif but I keep kleenex in my purse. You never know when you are going to need one. It seems to me if I forget my purse then I need one.

You know I can honestly say, I never keep a handkerchief on me. Umbrellas, art supplies, gum, floss--those I've got. But a handkerchief? Hmm.
