There’s little that is more satisfying than crocheting bobbles; they are easy, they are fun and they look so cool. Trugberg is a modern design with a sleek round shape and regularly spaced bobble stitches. It is a great example of what crochet can offer: gorgeous 3D texture and a well defined shape. See how the upper yoke stands up?
