Figure 8: Making a bobble
(a) To start making a bobble, knit into the
front of the next stitch as normal – but
keep the loop on the left-hand needle. (b) Knit into the back of the same stitch (c) – (e) Knit into the front, back and
front of the same stitch.
(f) There are now five stitches from the
original one. (g) Turn the work (WS facing) and purl
across these five stitches. (h) Turn the work (RS facing) and knit
across these same five stitches.
(i) Repeat (f) and (g) another two times. (j) Lift the second stitch over the first. (k) Repeat for the third, fourth and fifth
stitches so that one stitch remains and
the bobble is formed.
