I have been watching your tutorials for a little while now. I'm a crocheter, but have been toying with the idea of trying to make some jewelry. What is holding me back is if I want to invest in buying the tools for this craft. I'm old retired and my grip strength is not so good. You weren't sure if people liked the ring concept. But for me, this might be the determination as whether or not I would invest. Looks like I could try to make a price of jewelry, without having to buy too many tools to start with. That way I could see if I like it or am able to do it. I'm glad I stumbled across your channel.

Oh I also love to crochet! It’s wonderful, isn’t it 🥰 I’m sure you’d love making g some beautiful and simple pieces of jewellery and you really don’t need to spend too much money on the initial things that you need. You can buy basic sets of pliers and cutters, that come in a little case, for not much money. You can also get very affordable wires and beads etc. too, which would set you up for the basics. I’d advise 18g and 20g to start with, which will be good for most things, including rings and wrapped bead links etc. I’m so glad you enjoy the videos ☺️

Thanks for this Sam. I love the trio of beads and found it quite easy to make, though as you say, a little fiddly at first. The first one I mafe was a little small for my finger despite me going under my ring mark (I guess I didn't allow quite enough room as it worked the next time). I've made 2 rings now, one amethyst and one apatite and they're fab. Your hands are fine and show off your jewellery beautifully x
