I'm FereverMakng Bebles!.
Bobbles are fairly straightforward to make. There are several ways of making them but this is my favorite: 大Make 5 stitches in one stitch as follows: knit into the front, then the back of the same stitch twice, then knit into the front it once more. ★Turn your work and purl those 5 stitches. ★Turn your work again and lift the 2nd stitch on left needle over 1st stitch. Do this 3 more times slipping the next 3 stitches, one at a time, over the first stitch. Slip the first stitch to your right needle. Le voila!C'est une bobble! When you knit the next stitch make sure you knit it quite snuggly! On the following row that you knit you will notice a little gap preceding the bobble. Knit that nice and snug as well so that you have a minimal bobble gap. Yes, that is the technical name for it ;0)
