Description

From the book: Usually bobbles are made out of one stitch, but in this pattern they are made of two stitches. This way of making bobbles is useful for any pattern that is worked on an even number of stitches, so that there are two instead of a single central stitch; when it is desirable to place a bobble in the center, it can be made from both central stitches."
