I needed a yoyo holder, but most of the ones available are either overpriced or not very appealing. Since I wanted to try working with paracord, I decided to make my own. The carabiner clip and paracord were bought at a local sporting goods store. The 12-sided die was purchased from a hobby store and I drilled the hole myself. Total cost of materials was \<$5. Here’s some shots of the finished product:

Thanks! The Totalartist holders looked sweet, but I couldn’t justify the price tag for “just” a holder. :-[

No, I have no plans to sell them. However, if there’s interest I’ll make a tutorial on how to make this holder.

Good eye! ;D The bottom part is a weave for a sling pouch that I copied and modified from the site [here](http://slinging.org/index.php?page=5-strand-woven-paracord-sling-tutorial---jeffrey/). I used 3 strands instead of 5 and used gutted paracord to make a strip narrow and flexible enough to accommodate yoyos.
