Funky Crochet Headphone Covers

Posted on August 9, 2008 by ofenjen

When we were on vacation, one of the foamy covers from my daughter’s headphones ripped. We were on a road trip, and I had traveled pretty light, bringing only a bag of DMC floss for making friendship bracelets while we were in the car. I was able to borrow a crochet hook (it was HOT and I’d left my crochet at home!) and whipped up these cute covers for her. The only request she had was “not all one color.”

Size 00 Crochet Hook
DMC Floss (all one color, or pick up different colors as you go)

Chain 2

6 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Sl st in first sc.

Round 1: ch 1, 2 sc in ea sc around. Sl st in first sc.

Round 2: ch 1, (sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc) around. Sl st in first sc.

Round 3: ch 1, (sc in each of next 2 sc, 2 sc in next sc) around. Sl st in first sc.

Round 4: ch 1, (sc in each of next 3 sc, 2 sc in next sc) around. Sl st in first sc.

**repeat the pattern until you have a circle the size of your headphone (sc in next 4; 2 sc, sc in next 5, 2 sc, etc) then move on to the next Round**

Round 5: ch 1, sc in each sc around. Sl st in first sc.

Round 6: ch 1, sc next 2 sts tog around. Sl st in first sc.

Round 7: ch 1, sc around. Sl st in the first sc.

Round 8: ch 1, sc next 2 sts tog around. Sl st in first sc.

Finish off.

The size of the initial circle and of the amount of decrease will vary based on the headphones. Compare with the headphone as you go. They should have a really snug fit to keep them from coming off.
