I have made ipod sock!



With plastic for the screen mrgreen




The guy I got for secret santa at work takes his ipod mini everywhere, and he's italian, so I discovered the specs online and designed this. I also wanted to get him a gift certificate for itunes, but were only sposed to spend five bucks sweatdrop and the lowest they come in is ten

Wow! All of my friends have nanos now, and i'm not willing to knit that small.... mad d

That's really neat.
What did you do to get the plastic to stay in place?

I may have to get an iPod just so I can get one of those. x3

I've been wanting to make myself one of those now for a while. I have a nano tough; poor abused nano! I drop it all the time. sweatdrop I'm a klutz. How is the plastic held in place? I'm in desperate need of a screen protector.

haha. i love that it's a seasonal theme. i've made a few plain ones, but that's so much more fun than mine smile

I should totally make my ipod one. It does double duty as a portable hard drive and it sees a lot of abuse. Right now it has one of the rubber store bought covers (that has gotten a rather lude nickname at school rolleyes ) It could use a little love, and I'm trying to find stash depletion projects.

the plastic is from a bag my new dorm chair came in from spencers. i sewed it on with needle and thread. ill try and post a generic tutorial, but the hole for the click wheel ended up too big so that will need tweaked. he did like it anyway. for anyone whos wondering, i used worsted weight yarn and size 8 needles. took me all of two hours. and you have to measure in millimeters if youre working from the specs like i got online. heres the link: http://developer.apple.com/hardwaredrivers/ipod/

have fun! tut to come!

That's really nice! How did you make the plastic liner?  

[sakurachan61123]

that's really neat. I never would have thought of something like that. Do you know if it's possible to sew something like that? I would have no clue how to do it but it's just a thought.
