FAQs??

-How many squares do I need for a baby blanket?

This can vary, it really can be however big or small you like, but i generally do 4x4 or 5x5.

-How many chains shall I do for a *single/double/etc' blanket?

Again, this can vary. I would suggest that you do your chain and lay it down agains the bed you are wanting it for. It should be the same width. You should then ad a few more to make it a little wider.

-How much yarn do I need?

Unfortunately, I will not be able to answer individuals questions about how much yarn you would used do to multiple factors affecting it. Such as, your tension, the size of hook and the yarn being used.

-What equipment do you use?

-What do you do for a living?

I have watched your tutorials for all my crocheting projects!! My mom is so proud and I tell her I'm learning new things on YouTube and she is just amazed! Thank you ! Your so easy to follow along with and I'm pleased to say I'm a good pupil! Lol

Another super tutorial video. Your teaching skills are so great. You are costing me a fortune. Every video of yours makes me purchase more yarn for another project. I appreciate the time you take to make these videos. Thank you!!

I just wanted to say that I'm SO THANKFUL for you and your videos! I randomly woke up last week and decided I wanted to learn to crochet. I went and bought some hooks and yarn and didn't know where to start. I came on youtube to see if I can learn the basics and I found your channel! I've learned how to hold my yarn and hook, slip knot, chain, and a few stitches. I'm also learning the crochet lingo! I'm so exited. ALL THANKS TO YOU! I have begun this granny stripe and I'm about 20 rows in just as a sample and It's looking great! I'm getting more consistent with my stitches! Next I shall make a blanket!

this is my first time following Bella Coco and making this stitch was very easy for me catch on. will follow u as much as i can. the only thing i knew how to crochet was an afghan with the ripple stitch. been during that stitch over 40 years but knew nothing else. Thanks Coco

I only started crochet about 5 months ago, so am still very much a novice. I love your tutorials. You explain things so well and are so easy to follow. Thank you so much

[briepowers]

Your tutorials make it so easy to learn the various crochet stitches. Even though I am in the US, I still use your UK terms because that is the way you taught me. Thanks so much and keep posting please

i totally agree with you about ending the colors with a tie. My daughter loved her blanket so much it got washed all the time and fell apart. now with your method, it can be washed over and over again without fretting about it coming apart!!! Lovely video!!! Thanks for sharing. So clear and I love where you have the words pause in your video to make it easier for those that need to pause and wait for the next instructions!!! Thanks!!!!

[davidrachlin]

All of your videos are the best! As a long time educator in the US, I can safely say you are an excellent teacher. I'm a beginner left-handed crocheter and always look forward to learning something new from you.

Thanks Bella! For years I have been trying to learn more with crocheting. It really helps me with my sobriety. Im trying to do a scarf with this style using the colors of my favorite american football team. Thanks again! Congratulations on the wedding.

i never properly learned how to crochet, and reading a pattern was like trying to decipher a foreign language. I tried to follow along to some other videos and just could not get the hang of things. Your instructions are very simplistic and give lots of time. I thank you for teaching me what i thought i could not do. I only use your videos now when i want to learn a new pattern....again, thank you...sincerely A Canadian Beginner

[lisakirk]

i Love you!!! I learned how to crochet just by watching your videos!!! We grew up with our 3 Aunts making us blankets, dolls and booties. They have all passed away and I wanted to continue the tradition but couldnt understand written patterns. THANK YOU SO MUCH. Your tutorials are PERFECT AND SO EASY TO UNDERSTAND. Plus im from USA and LOVE your accent. My husband says he feels like youre part of the family because he hears your voice all day. hahahahahah.

[rozeara]

I swear by your videos... So clearly explained... I learnt crocheting Dec 2018 by following your tutorials... Thank you 😍

[le-annecloster]

Thank you Bella Coco for your tutorials. So easy to follow. I also like that you don’t embellish yours with things that aren’t relevant to what you want to show. Both easy on the ear and also to follow. I’ve tried other tutorials but they just don’t cut it for me. Thanks again

[niccoleweaver]
