I didn't get a whole lot of knitting or crochet done last week. But I did manage to finally cover my earbud cord. . .
This is one of those projects I do when I acquire a new device. The phone in question I got back in December. So, this project has been in the to-do pile for months.
It's hard to describe what I did. It's kind of me making a chain around the cord. Or, it could be described as me slip stitching around the cord. (Even if you know crochet that description probably makes no sense.)
If I ever figure out how to make videos, this will be a technique I demonstrate. But that's a concern for a different day.
My previous cord covers can be found here:
Cute.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteVery cool! :)
ReplyDeleteI bet that keeps them from getting tangled.
ReplyDeleteTurned out rather cool.
ReplyDeleteCute! I really love how you did that. The white is so boring. You really jazzed it up. The multi-red yard is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt looks cute. I like the color choice.
ReplyDeleteCool! Did you use a chain stitch for it? It kind of looks like how my grandmother would crotchet over hangers.
ReplyDeleteI did, kind of. The crocheting over hangars is basically the idea behind this (although I was far from the first to do it).
DeleteLove the yarn you used. Does it take long?
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I'll also say "it's cute!" because....it's cute. I am getting close to the time where I will start to crochet again (I don't crochet in the summer; rarely have...)
ReplyDeleteI have to have a project going. I can't sit still in front of the TV most of the time otherwise. I do more crochet in the summer as it's cooler. But I know what you mean. Hot days with yarn in hands. Yeah, not ideal.
DeleteHey you did something, nice red shade
ReplyDeleteI like the finished product! Looks fall like!
ReplyDeletebetty
Well, that's cool. I never even thought about doing something like that but with my son and his gaming cords everywhere I just might! - Love that yarn too!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't have said it better, though I have no skill with textiles. :)
DeleteYeah, when I first saw it, I thought it was a good idea. And it really does help keep things from tangling.
DeleteWell done Liz - just leave 'my buds as is' ... so much easier! But I admire these ... and if it stops them tangling ... it makes sense - take care - Hilary
