I certainly wouldn’t wear an ex-roomate’s socks. However, I would cut the foot off and sew up the end to make a sheath for my iPod. I’ve done it with my old socks and I always get, “You should sell them.” Well, that’s a great idea except my handicrafts are more a reaction to what’s out on the market: I can stitch and I’m too cheap to buy an iPod sock.
