5 Rules to create Perfect Perky Bobble every time!

If you are tired of bobbles that are flat and take time to turn work front to back to make one bobble, this method is for you.
Hello and welcome!
This video is on how to create a perfect structured bobble worked in the round (not flat)!

I have created a perfect perky bobble technique.

Why does an average bobble turn flat or limp, even if worked with the crochet hook? Because it lacks structure! Way too many flat open spaces and holes, and almost no structure to it.

How did I change that? Here is my method…

5 RULES:

1. Always twist the base stitch or strand.

2. Use only purl stitches for the right side of the bobble.

3. Always work bobble in the round - when either the right or wrong side of the work always faces you (not flat by turning work); * work stitches, and slip them from the right needle onto the left, carry the yarn at the back of the bobble and keep that strand short**, repeat from * to **.

4. Always reduce bobble stitches in one go by slipping the second and the rest of the stitches over the first stitch of the bobble.

5. Always anchor the only stitch of the bobble left if worked between stitches by knitting two stitches together (you will know which ones - they will have a gap); or if working a bobble out of a stitch, knitting the leg of the bobble stitch together with the left or right leg (if worked flat or in the round) of the adjacent stitch ( hence no increases or decreases, just anchoring it).
