It happens to us all. You are in dire need of a tune while squashed next to a sweaty besuited fellow bellowing into his mobile on a packed commuter train. You scrabble through bag or pockets for your headphones and when they appear one of the little earbuds is shamelessly naked. Showing off its smooth underbelly when it should be tucked neatly in a foam coat. Gah!
You can spend part of your morning trawling eBay for a replacement pair or try to find a minute to nip to the shops and buy a whole new set of headphones. Or you could make your own through the soothing powers of knitting.
Let the good folks over at Instructables tote you towards a place of brightly coated earbuds made by your own fair hands and a little light music, instead of listening to Gerald blather on to the team in West Bromich about profit margins.
Tiny knitted musical bliss.
