Luggage Tags or yo-yo

Hi friends - presenting lovely luggage tags. I was inspired to do this from the pattern of  Lion Brand Yarn craft pattern. I made some modifications to suit for knitting. The cork disc was knitted with a help of size 8 [4 mm] straight needles. The spiral cord was done with size 8 [4 mm] double pointed needles. The braided tie or string was done using size 14 double pointed needles. This was my first attempt with two color yarns.

3. Replaced glue yarn in desired colors in a spiral with an i-cord and coiled it closely to get a spiral effect.
