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`m not normally a gusher, but I just have to say you are by far the best crochet teacher on the internet! Thanks so much for sharing your skill and experience with such patience, clarity, and generosity.

I have crocheted for more years than I can remember and every so often I will come to YouTube for inspiration when I want a quick fill in project. Can I just say how lovely to see a well manicured pair of hands and no fake nails long enough to do harm...plus your videos are excellent!

I follow so many crochet channels but every single time I want to learn a new thing, you are the channel I come to. You taught me crochet a little less than a year ago and you are still, by far, the only person who has managed to teach me a stitch or a pattern in the first try. You're seriously awesome.

I watched 2 other videos for this, both were different from each other. My final say is always however you teach it. You do a lovely job of explaining and showing and going over things several times before leaving us to do some on our own. Best tutorials ever!!!

[daisygirl]

You are the best teacher. I had watched five videos and could not get this. Then I said “wait Bella Coco could teach me.” Yep, nailed it. Thank you.

[janetcooke]

Thank you for demonstrating what the work should look like every step of the way. I think this may allow me to make the leap to doing the foundation stitch chainless. 😍

[peggyvtaylor]

I have watched countless tutorials on this technique and have never been able to master it. Following this one, I got it the first time! Wow! Thank you!

[thebraidedmane]

I'm years late but I have to say, I watched four other videos about this stitch before landing here, and this was the only one that made it "click" for my brain how to find the previous stitch to put the hook into! The advice for moving your finger up is great--it helped me find it, but also helped me understand what it looked like so I could find it without doing that. Thank you so much for your clear teaching!

[KikisCraftRoom]

Thank you! I went through several videos with no success before I found yours. It finally clicked!

[PalemoonTwilight]

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that this is my favorite foundation row crochet video. I think you do an excellent job explaining how this is done and my foundation rows always turn out better when I follow your directions. Thank you so much for making this video.

[jaynehall]

It has taken me a few days to get this but by government I can see it now! Thanks very much. Your demo's are so clear. Jayne x

[Smr-bccn]

I really appreciate you starting and working the next row too!

[Skladdie]

I absolutely love your videos; I've made a few blankets with these videos. I've seen other videos where they do tutorials on this and for whatever reason I haven't been able to get it down, it just didn't look right to me. I came across yours and you take your time to show exactly what you're supposed to do, and I think that's what helped me figure this out! Thank you so much

[valeriepaige]

Thank you! Most comprehensive foundation tutorial on YouTube. I was successful thanks to holding the chain 1 stitch in place!

[kristalluckey]

I have watched many many videos trying to find an explanation that makes sense to me. THANK YOU so much.

[justtracy]

Excellent! After watching 4 other tutorials, yours clicked for me. Thanks so much!

[moirafoss]

Brilliant! At last a tutorial that is easy to understand and takes time to explain each step. Thanks.

[mariechavez]

I love this! As I usually like to crochet in the bottom bumps to make doing a border easier at the end. This automatically gives me chain stitches to work the border in! Genius!

[jacquelinerobinson]

I love your videos! I am just a beginner, and your videos have given me such confidence. I can't wait to try this shortcut!

[juliedurnion]

finally got the hang of this, I am a leftie who crochets right-handed but I found I yarn over the opposite way to a right-handed and that meant it didn't go right. I have now corrected this and should get used to yarn over in the correct way with a little practice. this is a much better way to start a garment as it gives a more flexible edge. thank you
