Pocketed Neck Scarf

A pocketed neck scarf comprising:

• a scarf body having a bottom side and a top side, the scarf body comprising a base section and a pair of arms extending from the base section, one of the pair of arms being a looped arm and the other arm being a straight arm, the looped arm comprising an extension extending from the base section and a looped portion adjacent the extension, the length of the straight arm being equal to the sum of two times the length of the looped portion and the length of the extension, the straight arm being selectively engageable through the looped arm to secure the scarf body around a user's neck with the base section resting on her upper back;
• the base section being rectangular and having a right edge, a left edge, a top edge, and a bottom edge, the pair of arms being aligned with the right edge and the left edge, the bottom side and the top side being a single piece of material folded along the bottom edge and stitched along each of the right edge and the left edge;
• and
• the base section having a plurality of pockets on the top side, the plurality of pockets being defined by a pair of pocket stitch lines perpendicularly extending from the bottom edge to the top edge and being open along the top edge, thus comprising a pair of outer pockets and a medial pocket, the pair of pocket stitch lines aligning with an inner side of the pair of arms, the pair of outer pockets and the pair of arms thus having an equal width, each of the plurality of pockets being configured to receive a pocket warmer.

A method for producing a pocketed neck scarf comprising:

• obtaining a rectangular piece of material having a right edge, a left edge, an upper edge, and a lower edge, the upper and the lower edges having a height less than a width of the right and left edges;
• orienting the upper edge to the left such that latitudinal lines run from the upper edge to the lower edge and longitudinal lines run from the right edge to the left edge;
• making a medial, latitudinal cut line from the upper edge, the cut line having a length less than the width of the material;
• folding the material latitudinally from the cut line to align with each of the right edge and the left edge, the material now being a squared U-shape rotated 90° counterclockwise having a pair of arms extending from a base section;
• folding the material longitudinally to align the lower edge with the end of the cut line, effectively creating a medial fold in the base section to align the lower edge with the pair of arms;
• sewing along the right edge, the left edge, through the pair of arms adjacent the base section, and through the base section along a pair of pocket stitch lines perpendicularly extending from the medial fold and aligning with a folded inner side of each of the pair of arms;
• folding one of the pair of arms longitudinally to align the upper edge within an extension distance left of the base section, the extension distance being greater than zero;
• and
• sewing along the folded upper edge to turn the folded arm into a looped arm.
