The one-sided fattenings (called semi-ribbon graph in this paper) of the graph embedded in the real projective plane ℝℙ² are completely classified up to topological equivalence. A planar graph (i.e., embedded in the plane), admitting the one-sided fattening, is known to be a cactus boundary. For the graphs embedded in ℝℙ² admitting the one-sided fattening, unlike the planar graphs, a new building block appears: a bracelet along the Möbius band, which is not a connected summand of the oriented surfaces.
