An iPod cozy can be both useful and pretty! Depending on how well you knit, your iPod can have a new sweater in as little as a half an hour. An iPod cozy is for beginner to moderately-good knitters as it is pretty simple to make. The example below is for an iPod Mini, but the principles will work elsewhere, too.
Steps
-
Cast on 9 stitches. If you are knitting an iPod cozy for your iPod Nano, cast on 5 stitches.
-
Knit in garter stitch (knit each row) until the piece is long enough to wrap all the way around your iPod and leave a flap.
-
Bind off.
-
Sew up the sides with a blunt needle.
-
Sew on a button. The fabric should be loose enough to push the button through without creating a button hole.
-
Finished.
Tips
- Try using different colors!
- Try not to make your stitches too tight or too loose and your cozy will be just right!
- You might also try sewing an iPod carrying case, if you don't want to knit.
