As for someone nicking the idea - if they have, good luck to them - it's just an iCord, so I can't claim intellectual copyright on the idea, but a friend sent me a link to someone who has done it before, anyway, so the idea isn't even novel. Besides, the artist's are far cuter than mine - check them out! http://www.ravelry.com/projects/Felix/lovephones :D Ooh, yes, all of the iPods came with headphones – these ones weren’t included with any o the iPods, they are a sony pair – the little inner-ear bit is very tiny, and made of soft rubber – the ipod earphones are far too big for my ears and make my ears very sore, so I do have a couple of those pairs hanging around somewhere (I think – I may have thrown them away) but these ones are the only ones I can comfortably use, which I why i don’t want them to break!

Awesome.... not sure I'd want to do that much icord when I could buy a spanking new pair first, and then icord them for future protection and individualisation.... very cool though! :!: icord for the ipod?

It's a simple idea, but the only difficulty is finding the needle size and iCord stitch number that works with the yarn and thickness of wires. It's really good at preventing twisted, tangled wires :green: Yes :D It is knit around the cord rather than nit and then slipped on afterwards, to keep it snug around the wires.
