Well it works with other cords and ropes and things—an old boy scout trick or sailor tool, I think, but having the tutorial made it a lot easier for me. Though some folks says it causes stress on your cords to do this at least they are neat and tidy!

Yea, that is one of the “cautions” but I am pretty hard on any kind of cords and earphones, especially, so I don’t think it would make too great of a difference to me.

It actually works. I am usually a klutz at this stuff but the great thing is how easily it comes apart without making knots! I would not say it changed my life but it is helpful!
