Corner to Corner Bobble Blanket

I wanted to create something for my grandson. He likes the feel of textured material.
This is a corner-to-corner project; it might be challenging, but I have a video tutorial to help out.

The materials I used were a size 4 weight yarn and a size I hook, but you could use any weight yarn or hook. I would keep the yarn between 3-5 size weight.

Bobble Stitch (B) = *insert hook in the stitch indicated, yarn over and draw up a loop, yarn over and draw through 2 loops* repeat 4 more times, then draw through all 6 loops.  ch 1 to secure the Bobble

Starting at one corner and increasing on both sides

Row 1: ch 4, B, ch 4, turn 

Row 2: The bobble is on the right and turned to the side, B in the 4th chain from the hook, slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space, ch 4, turn

Row 3: B in the 4th chain from the hook, slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space, slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the next bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space, ch 4, turn

Row 4:B in the 4th chain from the hook, slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space, (slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the next bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space) repeat until there are no more bobble in the row, ch 4, turn 

Repeat row 4 until you are ready to start decreasing.

If you want to only increase on one side to make the project a rectangle: 

Row 1:  B in the 4th chain from the hook, slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space, (slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the next bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space) repeat until you get to the last bobble, slip stitch into the ch 3 space on top of the bobble, ch 3, turn 

Row 2: (slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the next bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space) repeat until there are no more bobble in the row, ch 4, turn 

Repeat these two rows until you have the desired height of the project. Finish up the project by decreasing on both sides, ending on row 1.

Repeat row 4 until you are ready to start decreasing.

Then decrease both sides to finish up the project: (slip hook in the ch3 space on top of the next bobble, ch 3, B in the same ch 3 space) repeat until you get to the last bobble, slip stitch into the ch 3 space on top of the bobble, ch 3, turn 

Repeat this row until you only make one bobble. Finish off
