The folks over at Instructables have a very timely winter tutorial on hacking your winter gloves so that you don’t have to freeze your digits off to use your iPhone or iPod as the temperature falls.
You’ll need conductive thread, a sturdy needle and enough sewing capability to execute a few stitches without stabbing your eye out.
While there are a bunch of ways to get the touch back into your warm woolies — like Freehands or Dots gloves — we’re talking about the cheap-o version again since this step-by-step tutorial also mentions where to get a small amount of conductive thread, instead of a $20 spool, to sew into the tips for $3.95.
At that price, you can afford to give it a go — before resorting to fingerless gloves to answer your iPhone in winter.
