Long Bobble

I call this the Long Bobble Stitch (lbl) This stitch is a variation of the Bobble stitch.

It starts out as any other bobble stitch but instead of drawing thread through all loops on hook at the end, you continue to draw thread through 2 lps on hook at a time till all lps are worked.

To make 4, 5, & 6 dc lbls just repeat as you would above just increasing the number of times you repeat each section as needed.

This stitch seems to work best in the round. It would be a great element worked into granny squares which I plan to do in the future.

Waste Not Those Yarn Ends
Here is another use for the thread and yarn ends that you cut off of your projects. Give a whole bunch to your kids along with some poster paper, glue and glitter and what ever else you may have and let them make a collage with them. I bet that they would come up with some very colorful and wonderful wall hangings that anyone would love to hang on their wall! The ends could also be used for covering plant pots or other wood objects and used as a mosaic medium.
