CROCHET: Shell stitch tutorial | Bella Coco

[@melyndawilson2891]

I have tried to learn this stitch from 5 other videos and 3 websites and I could not get past the first shell. The first time I watched your video I did the whole things (with a bit of pausing lol) with no problem and now I am on my 22nd row of a blanket. Thank you so much, you did a brilliant job on this. I also usually have an issue with the turn over and starting a new row, but you made me understand it the first time you explained it. Thanks Again...

[@derekowen314]

Now what would I crochet without you ! All the best for this baby who is so lucky to be soon born in such a soft shell of love and traditional "savoir-faire féminin"! Thank you for re-teaching me how to crochet, in English, wich is actually tons of fun (even if now, I cannot read a French diagram at all)...! Listen to no one, take plenty of rest whenever needed and be blessed.

[@LuluNobody]

Your channel is a gift for me! I love that your patterns are always described in multiples of a number instead of yarn size, it makes it so much easier for me to apply that pattern to any size yarn I want, and I love that. Thanks so much for all of these videos!

[@kellydenton2392]

Thank you for showing us details of how to do this pattern, I've been knitting for years and started crochet for 3 years now and need to learn patterns in stead of the basic, not many show clear and slow ways of learning and your video is clear slow and very easy to follow. Thank you so much and look forward for more patterns from you.

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@susanburns1698]

OMG.. I 💙💚💜 how you explain STEP BY STEP.. You speak SLOWLY which I have to say is my #1 main reason I 💜 your videos! You ve got the camera zoomed in good , close & tight which helps a GREAT DEAL! My mom taught me how to crochet like 20 yrs ago.. and I of course know the basic single & double stitches, but I mostly did the Tunisian stitch, which I absolutely ADORE.. sadly, my mom passed away 2 yrs ago.. and I've got 2 friends both having babies VERY SOON (less than 2 months away) I don't have the $ for all the yarn to do the Tunisian stitch, much less, I can't find either 1 of my long double crochet/knitting hooks.. so here I am, it's been over 4 yrs since I crocheted last.. trying to learn a simple, easy yet stylish stitch for 2 baby blanket/throws that use the least amount of yarn at the same time.. I have literally started making the 1st blanket 6 different times, each trying a different stitching style.. only to get irritated & beyond frustrated every time cuz the ppl go WAY to fast, camera isn't zoomed in tight enough. So I have undo what ive started, and try again.. Thank you SO MUCH!

[@denisechambers2914]

Thanks for making this video. I am a beginner and am using this stitch for a mermaid tail afghan. It's my first large crochet project and I'm so glad to have found this beautiful, yet easy pattern. Tip for other beginners: I found it too hard to make shells from the foundation chain, so I built a sturdier base with a row of doubles (trebles) followed by a row of single (double) crochets. It looks quite nice and the first row gave me the opportunity to perfect my double (treble) stitches for the shells. :)

[@lucyevans9894]

Great suggestion, thanks

I've watched many a tutorial from others and they just cannot seem to convey what to do as well as you or they go too slow and repeat things too often. I've seen some of your tutorials and I just have to say that you really are the best! I've been crocheting since I was 13 (now 60) and I just love learning new patterns. Thanks so much for your videos! P.S. I love all things British so your accent (at least to me) is brilliant!

I believe it was your channel that a member of my knitting club saw and learned how to do this stitch. She's making a blanket using white, light green, a slightly darker green and a reddish rust color. The colors together in a blanket reminds me of red and green apples with some of them cut in half ( because of the white). It is so beautiful.

I was making a baby blanket and I didn't think that was doing it right. Turns out that I was! I undid it all, 4 rows worth of work, because I thought something was wrong! Thank you for showing me! The part that was confusing was the half shell. I thought there was another way to turn and still have the row look nice.
