Special Stitches:
Bobble: A bobble stitch is a group of trebles that are joined together at both top and bottom.  We are doing groups of 3 and 5 trebles to form our bobbles.

How to do your Bobble? This is for a 3 trs bobble. For the 5 trs bobble follow the explanation but do the number of repetition required that is mentioned in the parenthesis.

Wrap the yarn around the hook, insert the hook in the required stitch, pull a loop through, wrap the yarn around the hook and pull through the first two loops, leaving one loop on your hook, repeat 2 (4) more times in the same stitch. Then wrap the yarn around the hook and pull through all loops closing your bobble.

Note that at beginning of the rounds your chain 3 counts as your 1st treble. So you will start your bobble from “repeat 2 (4) more times…” till the end.

Note:
o   Chain 3 counts as your 1st treble, or you can start with a standing treble. Tamara from Moogly does explain in it in a very easy way. Find the tutorial of how to do it Here


 Pattern:
Start with a chain 3 and sl st in 1st chain, or do a magic ring. There is a great video tutorial of how to do a magic ring again on Moogly which you can find here.

Round 1: Chain 3, 7 trs in the ring, sl st in the top of the beginning of ch-3. {8 trebles}

Round 2: Your bobble in this round will be the group of 3 trs.
(Check Special Stitches)

Sl st between the 1st and 2nd trs, chain 3, 1 bobble in same stitch as ch-3 (since it counts as your 1st treble), ch 1, * 1 bobble in the following space between trs, ch 1,* repeat from * to * 6 more times, sl st in 1st bobble. {8 bobbles/8 ch-1 spaces}

Round 3: Your bobble in this round will be the group of 5 trs.
