Crocheting a pocket scarf is a fun and practical project, perfect for keeping warm during the colder months while providing a convenient place to stash your essentials like your phone or keys.
How To Crochet Pocket Scarf
You can either crochet the pockets separately and sew them on or directly crochet them onto the ends of the scarf.
When you reach the end of your scarf, instead of finishing off, continue crocheting additional rows but only over a portion of the width to create a pocket flap. Fold this flap over to create a pocket and sew the sides.
