I love crochet bobble stitch, and the fact that it is surprisingly easy yet so effective at giving that little bit of texture to a “normal” piece of crochet. I’ve used this stitch in my newest design – a crochet bobble stitch cardigan – called the Honeycomb cardigan. This is an easy pattern that is perfect for people who want to try and make a garment.
This cardigan is made very simply with rectangles for each piece, only the sleeves have an increase, and this is simple too as it’s only on one row!
You can get the whole size inclusive pattern here on the blog for free – sizes XS through to 5XL, or you can purchase an advert free Instant PDF with added stitch charts and colour coded sizing for easy crochet.
I’ve even recorded a video for how to crochet the bobble stitch, showing it’s really easy to do.

Why the “Honeycomb” Crochet Bobble Stitch Cardigan?
I struggle with naming my crochet patterns. There are just so many names you could choose from! Girls names, plant names, shapes, dogs names….. you name it!
So with this design I looked at the repeating crochet bobble stitch pattern I’ve used.
When I used a similar pattern for the Grape and Bobbles cushion in Crochet Now magazine, the name was not really catchy!
So this time, armed with Google and a look in detail of the pattern, I suddenly released, if some of the rows of DC were removed, the bobbles would fit together just like Honeycomb in a bee hive.

Yarn for a Bobble Stitch Cardigan.
I’ve made two of these cardigans using 2 different yarn types, both were chosen specifically to make this an affordable project for anyone to make.
Cygnet Pure Baby in Biscuit, a premium acrylic yarn, that is so so squishy, and an absolute joy to work with.
>>>Check out my blanket pattern with the same yarn here
It was the colour that swayed me on this yarn, the colour is just beautiful and the resulting cardigan so soft to wear.
Check out all the Cygnet Pure Baby colours >>>
The first cardigan I made, I used Stylecraft Special DK in Grey. This is a “standard” DK weight yarn, and a great everyday sweater (cardi) to wear.
Check out the 95 Stylecraft colours>>>
One thing to note – these are Double Knit yarn, 8ply, more common in the UK, as the “weight” of choice, but this will give you nice everyday wearable sweater, rather than having to wait until it’s below 5 degrees outside!
Other DK yarns you could use (Providing your tension/ gauge is correct)
Being a DK yarn, this makes the cardigan really wearable, not too hot, and not too cold, and also very cost effective to make!
Easy Crochet Bobble Stitch Cardigan Pattern
This bobble stitch cardigan is crocheted as 5 pieces. The back, 2 fronts, and 2 sleeves.
The back and the fronts are just rectangles, working backwards and forwards, turning your work at the end of each row.
The sleeves are made in the round, Slip Stitching to join, then turning – this way you don;t have to sew them up – as you’ve already done it as you were making them!
So if you can crochet a rectangle – you can make this cardigan.
I’d call this an advanced beginners or an improvers project, but just because there are a couple of stitches you need to know.
What crochet stitches do you need to know to make the cardigan.
Unsurprisingly, it being a bobble cardigan, you need to know the bobble stitch!
This is easier than it looks, and I have a handy video below showing how to bobble stitch.
Front Post and Back Post Double crochet (USA), and a normal Double crochet.
Sewing together, you can either crochet the pieces together with slip stitches, or use WIP stitch with a needle and the yarn.

The Crochet Bobble Stitch
I’ve recorded a really quick video showing how to crochet the bobble stitch for the cardigan here (No waffle).
A couple of minutes, and you get to see 2 stitches being crocheted, so show you, that if you can crochet a US double crochet, you can make a bobble stitch!
The thing to note with this stitch is that the raised bobbles are on the wrong side……. which will be the right side for the cardigan!
Why buy the PDF Instant downloadable crochet pattern?
I’ll be honest here, the pattern is available for free here on the blog in all 9 sizes, but it’s long! There are multiple sizes, and the sizes have a different bobble repeats to be symmetrical.
If you want to invest in the Instant PDF download (Thank you), you can buy it from the well know places below.
The bonus of the getting the PDF, the sizes are all colour coded. I recommend printing it out and circling the size you are making throughout the pattern before starting, but it is also perfectly formatted for a tablet device too.
The PDF has chart diagrams of how the bobble stitches are placed which will help you are a more visual learner too.

Pattern Notes
The cardigan is intended to be a generous fit with varying amounts of positive ease. Fronts, back and sleeves are worked from the bottom up. See Schematic for finished measurements (Included in Ad Free PDF).
All pieces except sleeves are worked in rows, turning at the end of each row.
The sleeves are worked in the round, slip stitch (ss) to join and turning at the end of each row.
The Ch3 at the beginning of the rows counts as a stitch throughout.
Rows 1-4 on each garment piece make the hem.
The repeating bobble pattern of the cardigan starts on Row 5.
On all garment pieces, the final st / 2sts are always DC (Not a bbl).
x donates that the instruction does not apply to that size.
Bobble (bbl) stitch is worked on the Wrong Side, but in the final garment this is the side of the cardigan that is on display.
Sizes are all colour coded on the Ad Free PDF. I recommend printing it out and circling the size you are making throughout the pattern before starting.
This pattern is written in 2 sizes – a cropped version (marked by *) and a longer version (marked by**) please check your row counts carefully. .
The length of the cardigan can be changed by reducing or increasing the number of rows on both fronts and the back, to make them the same.
NOTE: The cardigan in the photos (Cream) is a cropped (*) version of the cardigan, working only 53 rows per front and back for a XL size. This design measures 53cm and is 53 rows in length, and uses approximately 1-2 balls less yarn to make.
The longer version of the cardigan (Marked by **) is designed to fit just below the level of your bottom, see grey cardigan picture attached, for a cosy winter sweater.
As a guide, I am 5ft 3in, and I wear a UK 16/18, USA 14/16 and I made an XL size.
