Reversible-pocket scarf

Abstract

A reversible-pocket scarf has at least one pocket on a side of an elongated body end, with the pocket having a first face bearing a pattern or color and a second face bearing a pattern or color which differs from that of the first face. The pocket is reversible and may be turned inside out to reveal the second face pattern or color and turned inside out again to display the pattern and/or color on the first face. Even when reversed, the pocket remains capable of serving as a place to put one's hands or items for which storage is needed. The optional use of layers between the body and the pocket creates additional, similarly-reversible compartments and allows the scarf to offer even more colors and/or patterns while providing an insulating layer for increased hand warmth and divided storage space in the scarf.
