Simple bobble

Step 1: Make 4 stitches from one stitch

First, you need to accurately determine the place for the bobble.
Then, from the same base stitch, knit 4 stitches as follows:

1. 1 knit stitch

2. 1 twisted knit stitch

3. 1 knit stitch

4. 1 twisted knit stitch

Step 2: Knit only on these 4 stitches

Next:

1. Turn the work and knit 4 purl stitches

2. Turn the work, knit 4 knit stitches

3. Turn the work, knit 4 purl stitches

4. Turn the work, knit 4 knit stitches

In total — 4 rows of stockinette stitch (knit on the right side, purl on the wrong side).

Finishing

These 4 rows give density and roundness to the bobble.
After this, the bobble can be closed by knitting 4 stitches together.

Closing the bobble:

After you have knitted 4 rows on 4 stitches (stockinette stitch), you need to carefully close the bobble so that it looks neat and even.

How to close the bobble:

• Pull through the 4th stitch (that is, the first from the left edge) in sequence:

  1. 3rd stitch

  2. 2nd stitch

  3. 1st stitch

Thus, from 4 stitches, you'll end up with 1 again, and the bobble will be dense and beautiful.
