This scarf was inspired by a pattern I have for a 
sewn scarf. The original called for fleece fabric for the actual scarf and flannel fabric for the lining of the two pockets on each side. I decided to crochet the whole thing for my step-mom who is always chilly and stuffs her hands underneath her to keep warm.
sewn scarf. The original called for fleece fabric for the actual scarf and flannel fabric for the lining of the two pockets on each side. I decided to crochet the whole thing for my step-mom who is always chilly and stuffs her hands underneath her to keep warm.I single crocheted this with two full skeins of Lions Brand Wool-Ease Dark Rose Heather yarn. Before sewing the pockets, it measured 6"x60" and would wrap around the neck nicely. 
My step-mom is tiny, 5' tall, so for someone taller, I would add at least another 10 inches to the length. Since I knew she would wear it the way I am in this next picture, I sewed the pockets for her full hand length of 6 inches, reducing the overall length to 48". The seams are double sewn so that she could put little objects in the pockets and nothing will slip out.

The next project I am working on is a hat/scarf set for a toddler and also a scarf for a 6 foot 6 inch man... talk about size differences!
