Just how bad is this to do? I said I would never make these things cuz they
took too much time and now have a vest I want them in.


Bobbles are not difficult, you just knit back and forth across the same few
stitches several times before going the rest of the way across the row.

It's the turning it around and around and around that gets tiresome. And
that's really the problem, not difficulty, just how tiresome it gets.

HTH,

Oops....just reread and saw it said Bobbins not Bobbles! D'oh!!

Bobbins aren't hard either, if you are working with a lot of colors they are
actually a lot easier than working from skeins. They tangle a lot less, and
make intarsia easier to work, fewer holes where colors change because it's
easier to do the twist between colors.

I wouldn't do an argyle without them!
