Crochet (Knitting) Ring Sorter

thingiverse

I have friends and family who spend a lot of time crocheting and knitting, and one problem they face is managing their various colored yarns when working on a multicolored project. A crochet or knitting ring allows you to sort up to four different colored strings at your fingertips in no time. The ring has two parts: the actual ring can vary in size from person to person, so different fits are available. You can also design your own custom fit if you prefer, but I found that the 15 and 20 diameter sizes work well for most people. The part of the ring that holds the string is designed so you don't need to try feeding the string through the holes. Instead, simply slide it under the teeth at the mouth end, and it should slide into place easily. This device was not my idea - similar devices exist that do the same thing. However, this is my take on the concept, and it has proven to be effective.
