No More Tangle Ear-Buds: How To

Here are the instructions for the No More Tangle Ear-Buds from an Earlier Post:

Step 1a: Tie a slip knot and secure around cord right below ear-bud

Step 1b: Loop behind, yarn over and pull through in order to start the single crochets down the cord.

Step 2: Pull another loop from back to front so there are two loops are on the hook. 

Step 3: Yarn over and pull through again to make the first single crochet. 

Step4: Continue to single crochet down the length of the cord until you encounter when the two ear bud cords join together. 

Step 5: When encountering the Y-connection, chain down the length  and then single crochet after you reach the edge.  (In this case, chain 1, single crochet, chain 3, single crochet)

Step 6: Repeat steps 1-5 on other side of ear-bud. (I like contrasting colors  on left and right ear-buds)

Step 7: Continue to single crochet down main cord of ear-buds to plug in.  

Step 8: Chain 1 and cut the thread of the loop. Then use a needle to hide thread in previous stitches. 

Step 9: Listen and enjoy no more tangled cords!
