Do you have a piece of furniture with no soul? Or is your kid´s room pretty dull? These crocheted knobs made a little boy really happy.

How we did it
We wanted these knobs to be really tight, and used a technique called pjoning in Norwegian, also known as Bosnial Crochet. It basically means that you use the slip stitch.

Mushroom

Round 1: Make 3 stitches in a chain. Create a ring by making a slip stitch in the first chain stitch.

Round 2: Crochet 2 slip stitches in each of the three chain stitches.

Round 3-7: Increase every second stitch (Crochet two slip stitches in every second stitch).

Round 8-10: Crochet one slip stitch in every stitch.

Round 11: Change colour to the hem-colour. One slip stitch in every second stitch.

Put the work on the knob.

Round 12-14: One double crochet in every stitch.

Round 15: One slip stitch in the inner part of every stitch. This makes the work tighten around the back of the knob.

Sew on the dots on the red.
