How to Crochet the Bobble Stitch?
Bobble stitch is an epic no-sew technique for doll amigurumi. To begin, work a foundation of chains or any preferred base row. Then, yarn over and insert your hook into the designated stitch. Pull up a loop and yarn over again, pulling through the first two loops on your hook—this is the start of a double crochet.
Instead of completing the stitch, repeat the same process (yarn over, insert hook, pull up a loop, yarn over, and pull through two loops) into the same stitch multiple times, usually five or six, until you have multiple loops on your hook (including the starting loop).
Other Techniques
The following are the crochet techniques to use for crocheting this amigurumi Labubu keychain:
- Ch (Chain):Â Yarn over (YO), pull through loop on hook (repeat for the desired number of chains).
- Sc (Single Crochet):Â Insert hook into stitch, YO, pull through, YO, pull through both loops on hook.
- Sl St (Slip Stitch):Â Insert hook into stitch, YO, pull through both the stitch and the loop on the hook.
