Method 2: Measure Your Finger
Don't have a ring handy? No problem! You can measure your finger directly using household items.
What You’ll Need:
- A piece of non-stretchable string, ribbon, or a strip of paper.
- A pen or marker.
- A ruler (mm).
Steps:
- Wrap: Wrap the string or paper strip around the base of your finger. Position it close to the knuckle to ensure the ring can slide on comfortably.
- Mark: Pretend you are putting on a ring and mark the exact point where the ends overlap.
- Measure: Lay the string flat against a ruler and measure the length from the start to your mark. This is your inner circumference.
- Compare: Use the table below to find your corresponding size based on the measurement in mm.
