Okay, I don't have an ipod but I'm extremely jealous of those armbands you can buy to make your ipod hands-free while working out. So I decided to make my own! If you want to make a cheap one too, keep reading :)Supplies:
An old t-shirt
Needle and thread
A music player
Okay, I'll break it down really simply:
1. Cut off the sleeve of the old tshirt.
2. Put on the sleeve and place it where you want the band to sit (mine sits right above my elbow).
3. Pinch the fabric around your arm until the band it tight, but not cutting off your circulation.4. Either mark the fabric while it's on your arm, or slide it off (keeping it pinched) and mark it. This will let your know where to make your first stitch so it is tight enough to stay on your arm.
5. Fold the sleeve in half (hotdog style haha) and make a simple stitch of your choice down the sleeve, through all four layers (after you fold the sleeve, this should create four layers of material to sew through).
6. Take your player and put it into the makeshift pocket created by folding the sleeve. Make a note of where you need to make a second stitch to make it stay in the pocket.
7. Make this second stitch.You should be done! :)
Good luck and leave a comment of you have any questions!
