| Abstract: |
A garment convertible from scarf to mitts is formed by a tubular member with a central arms receiving opening to allow the wearer's arms to extend through the tubular member and through a collar at each distal end, which collar when folded over converts into a cuff. Cooperating with the collar is an overlying flap formed into a pocket positioned with a mouth opening facing, but on the reverse side from, the arm receiving opening, and designed to reversingly fold over and cover the finger tips of the wearer. A protuberance in the tubular member is defined near each collar for accommodating the thumbs, whereby a mitten is formed. In another embodiment, a singular sleeve can have the mitten and thumb accommodating protuberance combination near the collar.

We claim:
1. A convertible garment as a combination cuff and mitt comprising:
- (a) a tubular fabric member having a distal and a proximate end, the distal end being formed as a collar reversingly foldable to form a cuff for embracing the wrist of a wearer;
- (b) a protuberance with a tip closed to prevent ingress of cold air from the exterior and positioned proximate the collar to accommodate the thumb of a wearer, the collar extending beyond the closed tip to cover the fingers of the wearer; and
- (c) a flap formed as an overlaying portion on the outside of the collar for folded-over mating therewith to form an outer pocket with an open mouth positioned between the tip and the distal end of the collar and facing away from such distal end whereby to effectively close such distal end against ingress of cold air.
