There are a lot of variations to crochet this stitch. It can serve both decoration element and the way to decrease stitches in a row. You can crochet this stitch by using single crochets, double crochets, or treble crochets. The number of stitches in a cluster can be different. The more stitches included in a group, the more decorative stitch you will get.
The best descriptions for this kind of stitch I've found in the Donna Koolers's book "Encyclopedia of Crochet." It has excellent pictures and comprehensive explanations. There are three kinds of stitches in this family of stitches which due to their popularity have their own names: BOBBLES, POPCORNS, and PUFFS. All of them look differently, but the ways you crochet them are similar. This fact makes all of them "relatives" belonging to the same family of stitches.
Here is a video which will teach you how to crochet this popular and very decorative stitch.
