SPECIAL STITCH INSTRUCTIONS:

THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO MAKE A BOBBLE
STITCH. I LIKE THE VOLUME THIS TECHNIQUE
GIVES TO THE STITCH. IN THE SAME STITCH, YO, K,
YO, K, YO, K. YOU WILL HAVE 6 STITCHES IN THIE
SAME STITCH. TURN YOUR WORK AND KNIT THOSE
6 STITCHES. TURN YOUR WORK AGAIN AND KNIT
THE SAME STITCHES AGAIN. FINISH BY CASTING
OFF FIVE STITCHES OVER THE FIRST STITCH ON
YOUR RIGHT NEEDLE. YOU HAVE MADE A BOBBLE.
BRIM:
WITH THE SMALLER NEEDLES, CO 56 STITCHES. PLACE MARKER
AND JOIN IN THE ROUND.
K1,P1 RIBBING FOR 10 ROUNDS. *I THINK THIS WOULD
LOOK GREAT WITH A FUR
POMPOM.

GREAT IF THE BOBBLES
