Netbook cover

So I tried ordering a netbook cover made of neoprene from Belkin. It's the wrong size, and the right size isn't available in the states.
I'm still annoyed with Amazon, and none of the others I have been able to find on other websites are either A: not what I want because they load the computer in from the side, or B: not a nice color, or C: waaaay too expensive.

Epiphany: Duh. I can knit one.

String solves many problems.

GENIUS!

Someone on eBay was once selling felted iPod covers, made in Mongolia, if memory serves. I still kick myself for not getting one.

What size you got?

iPod? Oh, it's a classic 60 GB. I have a nifty case I'm happy with (with a carabiner so I can hook it to my jeans), but I thought the felted one would be neat for events when I'm listening on the sly. :)

Gotcha. :) If you find pictures of the felted ones, I may be able to make some facsimile, if you want.

I think Stephen the Merchant will be teaching felting at Egils....I made a felted purse at his class... iPod case? easy-peasy
