Description

From the book: "Here is a delightful pattern of bobbles grouped close together to form clusters. Each 'blackberry' is a cluster of six bobbles. The bobbles are smallish, being turned only twice. If larger bobbles are desired, two more turnings may be added. This pattern is fun to use in hats, mittens, and children’s sweaters; also, it is very good for bedspreads. Touches of embroidery can be added to simulate leaves around the upper section of each 'berry.'"

Notes

Deynise is a solitary knitter. She learned to knit years ago, but it really took off once YouTube tutorials surfaced. She knits mainly because it relaxes her and it clears her mind.
