Whether you want to conceal your headphones, have more comfortable headphones, or just keep your head warm while listening to music, the Headphone hat is a cheap, easy, and quick.

all you need is an old pair of over-the-head headphones, a wool hat with inner lining, and a needle and thread.


Please keep in mind that this is the way I did it, there are scores of other ways this may be done. If you don't have exactly what I have, or disagree with my methods, harness your creativity and make a better one.

I saw something like this for sale at the mall for I think $30. Great savings if you've got a spare set of headphones. That's a sweet hat too. Where'd you get it?

Cool ! When I am carving at a fair I can listen to music and not seem to be rude to people asking questions with the ear buds hanging off or stuck in one ear

Cool, looks easy to do, smart idea! P.S. This can't be in the LionBrand Yarn Challenge, or the Get the LED Out! Challenge, this isn't in that category.

Heh. Well, I check a lot of Instructables, and some members accidentally, or don't know about the challenges, so they just add them in because it has the checking box. And dude, don't be negative, this Instructable is awesome!
