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 use to crochet when my children were just babies, now they have babies of their own. I cannot tell you enough how much I appreciate your videos. I had a really bad accident in 2004 that wiped out 80% of all of my memories, I don't even have memories of having my kids, so when I wanted to get back into crocheting I did not think I could do it. But your videos have made the learning process so much easier, for that I sincerely thank you.

I am 64. I have been working the Tunisian Knit Simple since about 1971 or so. ALWAYS, when I made my starting chain and then proceeded across that foundation, I would insert my hook into the back loop only. I actually never thought of it as the back loop until today. When I watched your video. You see, I have been confused for all these decades as to whether or not I am supposed to insert hook in last stitch and make a chain stitch, or proceed across without doing that. Hence, watching your video. The unexpected bonus to that is this: Throughout the ensuing decades, as I said earlier, I only went through the blo of the foundation chain. Watching YOU proceed across in the video, I saw that you went through TWO loops. EUREKA! NOW I finally know why the bottom of my piece always curls up! Thank you for your tutorial. You don't know what that means to me. Blessings on your day.

Hi Bella, I am relearning how to crochet after two strokes and love how I am learning from you

[norahsassi]

Lol I’m Tunisian it’s nice to see others learning and sharing parts of my culture.

[sarapetunia]

I learned to (regular) crochet watching your videos, and here I am again years later to learn a new style. I'm so grateful for your videos- your teaching style works really well for me ❤

[cathj]

I started learning crochet 4 years ago when I was 11 with your tutorials — they are easy to follow and very detailed — and until now, I continue doing crochet for small gifts and such. Thank you!

[KimberlyLetsGo]

I have no idea why I waited so long to learn this! It's not even close to as hard as I thought it would be. TFS

[StephanieSharp]

Excellent tutorial! I am a knitter, and for some reason I always struggled with crochet. Knitting comes easier to me. So, that’s why I recently discovered Tunisian crochet, as it seems to be more Knitter friendly. Thanks to your tutorial I now feel really confident doing this technique. Perhaps I won’t be so scared of trying crochet again. Thanks so much for your videos!

I started crocheting when i was 7 and i could never find the perfect channel until i came across your channel it changed my crocheting level so much i am 8 now and i hope others feel the same ❤

[Lookingforsucess]

Thank you! I love crotcheting but have a hard time learning from books and your videos make it easy for me to understand.

[ellafaith]

The first I've ever heard of Tunisian Crochet was just today, believe it or not! It looks quite easy to learn, going off this part one. I guess I'll see the further along I get. :)

[greaterJAY]

I've been crocheting for 1 month! 😁 Self taught on YouTube. I've just discovered this stitch and I'm so excited! Finally I get to "knit" without knitting needles which I cannot seem to learn. Thanks for this!

[kbrathwai]

Thank you Ms. Sarah for explaining the Tunisian crochet stitch. It was very interesting to learn again. As always KEEP CALM AND KEEP CROCHETING. 🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸

Greetings Bella Coco,
I just want to let you know that I have scoured the mass number of youtube videos and online videos regarding various patterns on crochet. Each time I settled on learning the new technique, I realized the videos were all done by you. So thank you for the C2C and the waffle stitch tutorials, I am sure that I will enjoy this one as well. I saw my first Tunisian hook at the store and it was my favorite sized hook I enjoy working with, and there was no one else's video I wanted to walk me through my first adventure (corny I know) than Bella Coco. So thank you for being a great teacher, I enjoy the extra angles, and your tone. Keep up the terrific work, because I think your the best

Hi Bella Coco! I first learned to crochet 53 years ago, from my Nana, when I was 5yo. Taught myself to knit about 25 years ago when I was 33 (that was one of the crafts Nana didn't know). I recently started making purses to give friends as gifts and didn't like how my straps were coming out so I thought, maybe Tunisian crochet will be the answer (another craft Nana didn't know)? Automatically came to your YouTube channel to see what tutorials you had. Forgot to mention, I studied to be a college professor - just wanted to tell you that I greatly appreciate & admire your teaching style. I've learned or refreshed my memory of many stitches over the past few years & you're one of my favorites. Thanks for being such a great guide. My Tunisian straps are so much better than what I was doing in regular crochet, and nowhere near as hard on my hands as using my lucet fork. Plus, only making a project with a few stitches gives me something to do with Nana's old Boye hooks - since I started using Furls, they've been ignored.

I want to thank you I have never been able to do this stitch til now!!! Thank you for your clear instructions on doing this!!!❤️

[ozchick]

My first time doing Tunisian. I absolutely love the tutorial. You are such an awesome teacher. Thank you so much. ❤🧡💛💚💙💜

[claudiadiaz]

Your videos are so good and clear. Not fast like so many. Can't understand what they're doing.
Awesome! I can actually do it. It's a good feeling. Thank you Bella

[dj_alboe]

Your videos are the best tutorials I have found on YouTube. A streamer on twitch to me about you. Now I crochet and knit on twitch and whenever anyone asks for suggestions of where to get help, I ALWAYS say, "I highly recommend Bella Coco on YouTube." Thank you for doing such a beautiful job and helping so many people!!

[ScorpioLibra]

I've just learned to crochet by watching your video on Granny squares for beginners. Am doing very well with it thanks in great part to you. This stitch looks quite simple and can't wait to try it. Keep up with the great videos.
