Hanklerfish Headphones Cozy

Ich weiß, dass ich nicht die einzige bin, die ständig mit verworrenen, verknoteten Kopfhörerkabeln kämpft. Abgesehen davon gehen sie ständig kaputt.
Also muss man ständig neue kaufen. Dieses mal trotze ich dem Schiksal und habe ihnen ein kleines Täschlein zur Aufbewahrung gestrickt, das beiden Problemen (ein wenig) Einhalt gewähren soll.

Spontan angeschafftes und dann doch nicht benutztes pinkes und grünes Baumwollgarn  kam mir für meine Idee gerade recht...

Stolz präsentiere ich also das Hanklerfish Headphones Cozy.
Der Anglerfisch sieht etwas grummelig aus, aber ich versichere, sie ist es nicht!

Okay, hier sieht sie aus, als würde die Kopfhörer erbrechen...

Falls sich jemand über die Inspirationsquelle für die Wahl eines Anglerfisches wundert, schaue man sich dieses Video von Hank Green mit seinem Lied über den Anglerfisch an.

*sing-sangt*
It has only ever eaten headphones and will probably only ever see the dark depth of my backpack…

In der (hoffentlich) nahen Zukunft werde ich das Strickmuster auf meinem Ravelry-Account veröffentlichen.

The Fall Of Arthur

Ist vorhin angekommen!
Aber wo/wann zur Hölle soll ich Zeit finden, es zu lesen?!

*stille Tränen weichen meine Uni-Lektüre auf*

mewanna!!!

OMG!!! 

Bitte, egal ob zum Geburtstag, Weihnachten, irgendwann Muttertag, 

aber ich möchte ein Woll-Bouquet bekommen!!! 

BITTE!!!

Yay! Pink Hair!

 
They are already a bit bleached out again but I really like the mellow babypink mixing with the more electric colour...

Once they're nearly blonde again I'm going to re-colour.
Violette or teal?!
I can't decide...

Kindle – One week after the arrival review

 

I’m the first one to pledge never ending love to the written/printed word on paper.

But. There are quite some reasons why an e-reader is handy. Having to go through extensive pdf files for example. Now I won’t have to print everything (and I already checked, you can highlight the texts, too), you can access a large number of free classic texts and you can finally read your favourite fanfiction on the go.
I do read a lot of light fiction and though (unfortunately) the pecuniary savings on e-books are not (yet?) that much I think I'll save a lot of shelf space. Plus did I mention you can also save the knitting patterns for your current ufo's on it to examine at your leisure/work on where ever you want.

That does not mean that I will ever stop buying/obsessing/cataloging/caressing actual books.

The devise itself is large enough to read comfortably and small enough to fit into my hand (small as it is), it’s lighter than my phone (not too hard as it is considered pre-historic by my peers). The frame looks good and is easily cleaned on a cotton shirt in case you have held it with sweaty hands. The screen has none of the feared blurring/light disturbances criticised in many reviews. It is easy and fairly intuitive operated. I think I will get to love this gadget <3

I made myself a sturdy cover to carry it around in my bagpack without being in constant fear of breaking it – though it seems pretty robust.

Huzzah!

I not only discovered the very best criterion nobody ever mentioned in an advertisement (»You can change pages with your nose!!!«) to own one of these nifty devices, I also made up a free pattern for a Wise Owl Kindle Cozy Cover - knit and enjoy!

And who ever can guess what I'm reading will get a big virtual HUG :o)

 

There's an owl on both sides, one is sitting on an apple the other on a cherry tree.
