knitted bangels

I've recently taken up knitting again. I used to do it as a kid and now that I'm not spending the majority of my time after work typing out a thesis, I figured my hands needed a bit of exercise.  I discovered these  knitted bangles on pinetrest and knew I had to create my own.  I'd like to get a little more funky with my designs, but this is what I've started with.

please excuse my starbucks in the background  - my pumpkin spice latte fix motivated me to get these done

Here is what the knit-stitch in yellow looks like

and the stockinette stitch in grey

What do you think?
