130 optimised to fit most if not all shirts to allow a front side of the shirt to be ironed at once without requiring repositioning of the shirt this means ironing of shirts is completed more quickly and easily the ironing board of the current embodiment is also particularly useful for ironing t shirts tunics nightshirts jumpers etc or any other garment that fits across the shoulders and may have a shoulder yoke in an alternative embodiment three equal sized linear portions may replace curved portions 133 a 133 b 133 c to achieve a similar effect the embodiment of fig3 to 5 may also be provided with attachable wings to further improve the ironing of shirts etc fig6 shows the approximate shape of a wing 170 the wing is of a generally triangular shape but is arranged to fit against one of the curved portions 133 a 133 b 133 c therefore the wing has a concavely curved edge 171 the curve of this edge matches that of the curved portion 133 a 133 b 133 c of the ironing board of fig3 to 5 thus the curved edge is symmetric and the curvature is greatest at the center of the curve and decreases towards the extremes of the curve such that at the very extremes the edge is approaching linear because the curved portions 133 a 133 b 133 c preferably all have the same curved form the wing 170 will fit against any of these portions the wing also has a pair of substantially linear edges 172 to make up the generally triangular shape of the wing 170 the apex where the two linear edges 172 meet may be rounded as shown in fig6 fig7 a shows a pair of wings arranged against side curved portions.
