4-in-1 Hat, Scarf, Fingerless Gloves & Mitten Pocket Combo!

Step 5 Make your mitten pockets

Now it's time to sew your fingerless gloves into the scarf and create your mitten pockets so you can pull your hand out without removing your glove.  This step is easier to do than it sounds.

1.  Fold your scarf in half lengthwise, right sides facing. 

2.  At the ends of the scarf, place your fingerless gloves in the middle with the thumb openings facing the fold of the scarf.  Leave enough space at the end of the scarf for your fingers.

3.  Mark the top of the glove by your wrists (red lines) and cut a slit in the scarf the same width as your glove (the red lines).  Make sure to only cut the top layer, not both sides of the scarf.

4.  Sew the gloves into the slit (along the yellow dotted lines) with right sides facing.  It helps to turn the glove inside out and push it into the slit. 

5.  Find the top of the thumb opening of your fingerless glove (it should be just just below where the glove is sewn into the scarf) and mark just a little bit above it.

6.  Fold the the scarf over at that marked area and cut a slit on the other side of the fold to make your pocket opening.  Make sure to only cut through one side of the scarf.

7.  Do the same to the other end of the scarf to get your other pocket opening.
