Ever thought to crochet a ring? Here are some interesting crocheted rings:

Another kind of ring can be seen here:

and includes a link to a tutorial. Quite helpful.
And, if you have loooong fingers (and I do, but you might need them longer than mine), you might enjoy making one of these beauties:

You can download the patterns there for free.
A very simple ring here can be embellished, perhaps, with a small pretty button or bead:

Plus, if you want to crochet with wire, you can google and find several more ring patterns. Have fun!

Hi Thanks for the links. Someone in my needlework class crocheted a jacket for another member. She used very interesting buttons and I offered to make a ring to match if the owner of jacket would buy some of the buttons. She forgot about the offer but meanwhile I had copied a ring pattern from Jewelry with a Hook by Terry Taylor. Ring is on front cover. I may try all the rings.
