That‘s the ring of a participant. I love her choice of color and fabric. Very cute.

A yubinuki (timble ring) with blue fabric on the inside with tiny flowers and two different yarns on the outside. One has shades of burgundy red and darker brown. The other yarn has shades of icy teal.

They are stretchy.
The yarn is hand dyed from a crafts market.

I used 3 YouTube-Videos, just guesstimated a number of of loops divisible by 8 and applied the principles

Finally! Finished.
It‘s interesting how different the first and the second sock are. I needed 8 more rows to achieve the same length. So before I dare a jumper I better improve knitting consistency.

Progress. The second one seems so much easier. Faster.

One done ☑️

How did people learn any craft before youtube tutorials?
Watching Grandma I guess. Live „narrow“ cast in the living room. Free. Premium. No ads.

That knitting project takes for ever.
I might consider a career as a pirat just so that one sock will be enough.

An unfinished coral sock with a small diamond pattern. A bit more than the toe part is still missing. There is a red life line which I could have needed earlier this day, when I started with dropping 3 loops that ran down 5 rows. Whoohoo! A lesson learned… once again.

Yup, I started doing that.
My ego is still complaining, but that life line already came handy …cough … times.
