I don't know what the "hobbled" part means, but I have made quite a few using the directions in Simplicity's "Simply the Best Home Decorating Book." You could probably check out a copy from your local library, or buy one at JoAnn's with a discount coupon! I also have a pattern from McCall's for making Roman shades.

hobbled means that there are folds down the whole blind when it is fully down.
Try using McCalls pattern #3088
