Panda Hooded Pocket Scarf

My daughter loves her hooded pocket scarves. She wears them to school almost every day. She also loves the fact that I will try to make her any design she asks for. She recently asked me if I could make her a panda hooded pocket scarf. I got my yarn and went to work.

This pattern is fairly easy. It is very similar to my Dinosaur Hooded Pocket Scarf, and my Fox Hooded Pocket Scarf.

For this scarf I used Big Twist Value yarn and a 5.5mm crochet hook.

My daughter loves her crochet panda hooded pocket scarf so much. She was so excited to wear it to school and show her friends.

She is already thinking of more ideas for me to make for her. If you have any suggestions let us know.
