Knit your own iPod sock

Everyone and their queen has an iPod. All of those naked iPods out there are just horrifying! Luckily, one intrepid knitter is trying to get people to cover up their iPods.

Barbara Breiter, of About.com's Knitting guide, has posted a pattern for all you knitters out there to create your very own iPod Sock. Why would you want to do this when Apple has some iPod Socks of their very own?

First off, Apple's cost $29 and these will set you back a few dollars and a couple of hours. Secondly, who doesn't need a project to keep them busy?

Don't forget that they also make great gifts!

"Work in pattern st as follows: Rnd 1: *k3, p2; rep from * around" "Rep Rnd 1 until 4" or slightly longer for iPods other than the iPod mini if desired. BO in pat, leaving long tail. Seam bottom. Weave in ends on WS." Gotta love that knitter's lingo! It makes CSS look like Shakespeare!

I've crocheted several iPod socks. I even made an armband of crocheted iPod sock and an old sock. Works very well. I paid $300 for my iPod, and it doesn't need $30 cases!!
