Pull a length of yarn about 10” and thread through a darning
needle. Sew through the 12 sts left on needles to bind off and pull to cinch.
Stuff the bobble with polyfill through beginning opening.
Then use the tail to sew through the rim and pull to cinch.
Using a small crochet hook crochet the tail creating a loop
for the bulb to hang. Sew the end to complete the loop.
Work in remaining tails.
