The knotted cord items are cufflinks.

The cloth knots look to be shirt cufflinks. Maybe these are in regimental colours for the unit?

Usually worn in non military shirts but perhaps a colourful mess kit dress shirt affectation. Anyway, they’d normally be found in a double cuff shirt as an alternative to metal cufflinks.
