Furry fun for ipods

If your laptop or ipod is starting to feel the winter cold, what better way to give it a treat than a finely handcrafte ipod and laptop 'wooly jumpers' created by Amsterdam based duo, ',but'.

The laptop jumpers, and ipod mini jumpers are handmade from 100% merino wool. Light colours are used on the inside, and darker on the outside, but always in early palettes, wich contrast with the plastics and metals of modern computers. The company logo is attached by a leather tag, wich can be removed for an anonymous look, if desired.

The thickness of the wool ensures protection for your equipment when travelling, and also provides a snug home for the device.

The idea for the jumpers came after ,but founders Jennifer Skupin and Ellen Utrecht saw the large variety of laptop and ipod baggage currently available. "There are lots of different kinds of cases to dress your ipod or computer in these days, but they nearly alsways use hi-tech fabrics and materials. We wanted to make something that had a more homely, craft feel, to contrast with the high technology of the computers.
