[LOTR] Why didn't the Elves just make more rings?

Their rings were uncorrupted by Sauron, and rings seemed pretty capable of granting all sorts of sweet powers.

While Sauron had the One Ring, the elves could not safely use their rings because the One Ring would gain control over them. By the time Sauron lost the One Ring, the elves who knew how to make Rings of Power were mostly dead (including Celebrimbor, who made the Three Rings). During the 3rd Age, the only one to figure out even how to make lesser rings of power was Saruman, and he seems to have made his after betraying the White Council and starting his attempts to take over Middle-earth.
