There are a few different ways to make bobble stitches, and the type of yarn that you are using can be a factor in choosing which to use for your project. I chose to use the 3 double crochet bobble for my Rainbow Dreams Wall Hanging pattern, which uses a very thick yarn. A bobble with more double crochets may be more ideal for a thinner yarn.
I’d love to see what you make with these tips! Don’t forget to share a photo of your finished work in my Facebook group!

This was perfect! Fortunately I already knew how to make a bobble but I wasn’t sure how many DC to work into my bobbles with the chunky yarn I was using. Your article is the only one that I came across that mentions using a different number of DC to make the bobble depending on the chunkiness of the yarn. As for the tutorial part of your article, I have a crochet book that I reference to teach me new stitches. After reading through your tutorial, I wish I would have saved my money on the book and come across your site instead! It was so easy and clear to follow. I’ll be adding your site to my list of reliable sources to guide me through my future projects. Thanks for keeping intimidating crochet easy!
