this is so cute and so much better than a plain pocket style cover
i used 4 ply instead of 8 ply by mistake is that ok?
What a great idea!!! I have never knitted clothes (not counting mittens and hats. lol) but this would be great for me to start with. Thanks for this.
I’ve done one…now on to the next!
This is so awesome! Thanks for the great pattern.
omg cute! jus got a new motorola and could put this to good use!!!!!!!!!!
It is so cute. I made one for my friend and she loved it. Thank you so much for the idea. i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait to make this for my son
I just finished this and loved it! I would adjust for a Nano though as I think it’s for a regular iPod.
Thanks for the great pattern!!

To answer the person who asked about increasing…knit into the front and back of each stitch to increase. There is a vidoe of how you do that at http://www.knittinghelp.com
Great pattern! Really enjoyed putting it together.
cute hoodie – my friend got one for her b-day and i like so totally wanted one and now i can make my own custom one! but i found the one she got in the store and bought it anyways. 🙁 shame on me):
this is an awesome pattern i love it
Love it, but need help. did entire 1st section but got up to “Knit to 1st marker and place sleeve stitches on spare yarn, knit back section and place 2nd sleeve sts on yarn, finish row. There should now be 42 sts.” I have 56 sts? Why?
I think the hoodie is really cute but I am definitely NOT a good sewer,so I am going to need a lot of help!!!
that’s so cute! I love it! guest who needs help, a marker is a device, usually a small ring that you use to mark a spot in your work — you can use a loop of scrap yarn if you need to. check out http://www.knittinghelp.com for how to increase.
what’s a marker? and what does increasein once into stitch before and after the marker mean? PLEASE HELP!
I LUFF IT!! it’s so cute! && im even making them for my friends, THEY even love them! i love the furry part of the hoodie. it’s AWESOME! thank you!
this is THE cutest hoodie. the only thing that bothered me was how complicated it got.
Very cute!
So Cute I Love It!! The Best Ipod Cover I Have Ever Seen!!
