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.
This blog post might be useful: bit.ly/1UIobie
-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.
This blog post might be useful: bit.ly/1UIobie
-How much yarn do I need?
Unfortunately, I will 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?

Your Blanket is Beautiful love the colors that you used! Thanks for sharing and your time. 💖👏😍🖒

[@MG-kr2gx]

Hello I'm from the U.S. , California. I'm a senior and need step by step instructions that I can actually follow and do, your videos are perfect! You teach very well and I like how you take your time to show the steps and how you time stamp the different rows so I can go back to them. I appreciate your videos very much! Thank you!

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@suepeterson5675]

Very nice Ms Bella ! I've been watching, learning and doing projects that you teach for awhile now. You explain everything clearly. Your photography is excellent. Thank you!! Appreciate all you do. 👍👍🤗

[@lynetteblakelock5274]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Self taught and never follow a pattern - this is a first for me and found your instructions very easy to follow. Thanks again.

[@JSGS2002]

Beautiful and thanks for your tutorial. I’m crocheting my blanket now!!!!

[@jenibeck91385]

This pattern is just Beautiful! & the way you teach it is just perfect! I've only been crocheting for 6-8 months, I've made many different blankets, bags, slippers, scarves, etc., & your tutorials are my FAVORITE! 🧶💙🧶 You explain each stitch, every step of the way, so clearly. I've never finished a video of yours, confused or unsure of what to do. Also, your video & sound quality is great! Zoomed in just right, not too loud or too quiet. No background music, no unnecessary chitchat... I could go on & on... Please keep it up! Your tutorials are the BEST!💖

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you so much for your lovely comments and I am so pleased that they are of help to you 🙂

[@shelly3647]

I just started crocheting and I've gotta say, I loooove your videos. You are very clear on what to do and don't work at to fast of a pace. I also enjoy how you tell where to pause your videos-great for beginners!!

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you so much, your feedback helps me to know that I am doing things right for beginners :)

[@strongerthanyourmind]

Made this so many times now. Thanks so much. Always my go to blanket for any new babies xx

[@bellacococrochet]

You’re very welcome 😊

[@Tanacarroll]

I love how you put pattern instructions at the end of each row for the next row. Nice.

[@idrisdevon9013]

i realize I'm kind of randomly asking but does anybody know of a good place to watch newly released tv shows online ?

[@missy6055]

I am definitely trying this pattern. Looks lovely!

[@peggycollins4523]

Bella, thank you so much for the pattern and video. You are so easy to follow. I would recommend you to everyone. Again, thank you so very much. Happy hooking🙂

[@cmfanatic1]

I just love your video tutorials!! You give very detailed directions, pauses for the transitions and a very pleasant speaking voice. I will be a fan/subscriber forever!!!

Very pretty pattern. Thank you for the demo.

[@sandraelliott5152]

This is such a beautiful design. Thank you for sharing how to make it.

[@wendyf4827]

Thanks for your fabulous tutorial. I've wanted to make a star blanket for ages, then I recently discovered your video and you explain everything so clearly. Now on my second star baby blanket and it's my new favourite pattern. So relaxing to do once you get into the rhythm of it :) xx

[@bellacococrochet]

You’re welcome 😊

[@aquilahaji3465]

I agree! It is a very relaxing pattern as long as one counts and not mess up a bit like I did!

[@merakitra]

Hello, I'm your new subscriber, just want to thank you so much for the videos. I am a knitter, for years I wanted to learn crochet, I tried tutorial classes, books, friends.....without any success. I came across your video by chance and found your instructions so clear and easy to follow, so I pulled out some old yarns, and wow! for a few hours I have made an infinity scarf, now I am on the next project, the granny square. 😘

[@leahhiett1706]

Love this pattern so much

[@makegoodchoices1002]

To the new students of crochet: If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again! Really! I have pulled things out even 4/5 times when necessary, because I want it right. Practice really makes perfect! Be patient with your self, and pause as necessary, count along the way. You will get it! Thanks so much for the pattern❣ 😁 P.s . I love you choice of polish, and appreciate that it is fresh! 💅

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you :)

[@sueelmes6971]

Beautiful! Thanks for the tutorial. Sue.

[@deerichards4037]

Have made this a few times, always works up well, nice baby shower gift. Thank you xx

[@bellacococrochet]

You’re very welcome 😊

[@Endidje]

Thank you so much, I’ve only ever made simple blankets but I wanted to do something for my pregnant coworkers baby and I made this with no issues! Your tutorials are so fantastic! X

[@bellacococrochet]

You’re very welcome 😊

[@llathem2212]

The way you start your star blanket explanation is better than others. I’ve made so many I’ve donated some. Thx so much. 🌷

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome 🙂

[@victorialamarque-blair6289]

Finally got courage to watch this as I’ve seen many other beautiful examples.thought he way too hard. Your tut is excellent so this is my next project - thank you so much again 🌻

[@kathrynwall8270]

Thanks again for another well presented tutorial. I thoroughly enjoyed making a baby blanket for a gift for my friend due in August.

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome, I'm sure your friend will love the blanket :)

[@margaretpower3185]

Thanks, this is great. I’ve done something similar in variegated yarn but this is so much nicer done with your clear colour changes. I love Sundays but can’t wait to be able to sit down in peace at the end of the day! X

[@margaretpower3185]

Btw, how can you have a ‘dis like’ within literally minutes of posting? 😀

[@janecotton4149]

Sadly Sarah-Jayne seems to have habitual dislikers 🙁 obviously envious of her talent.

[@margaretpower3185]

Well, loads of us appreciate her efforts. She’ll get to her 500,000 at the rate her subscribers is going! X

[@jesikamorris]

Your tutorials are the best! So easy to follow along. I learned a lot of my crocheting on your videos. Thank you so much!

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@beverleydabell3241]

Absolutely beautiful thank you. I love the yarn you are using x

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@wendyroddy396]

I have only done two other stitches, both from tutorials from Bella Coco. I have just made this in 4 days! Thank you so much!

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@estellelempa2461]

I love your crochet tutorials! You are my preference when looking for a pattern/tutorial.

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you so much :)

[@brideygoulding2697]

This is the most complicated looking piece I have attempting and I’m so happy with how it is turning out, thank you for the easy to follow instructions.

[@bellacococrochet]

So please it helped you! :)

[@Sarah_rathod]

I love this I tried it for the very first time today and it came out a treat. Thank you 🙏

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@esthersorensen2983]

Bella Coco your videos are the Very Best I tried to make this 12 Star blanket 2 other times watching others till someone told me how wonderful your videos were and they were right! Thank you for making all these Video's for us to watch!

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@wendyhall493]

very helpful, better than another video I watched and couldnt figure out where to put the hook exactly nor which 2 stitches to miss. It also ended up puckering and rippling because i had too many stitches. On yours I could see that exactly. Now to finish my star.

[@janebellfield2322]

Looking for another lockdown project and found your video on the twelve point star blanket. I have started it using yarn from my hidden wool stash, it is a very addictive pattern to work. Thank you for the tutorial video and stay safe. 🌸

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome :)

[@jeancheckley8104]

THANK YOU this has been so easy to follow and make, my first star blanket I followed someone else on youtube and she did it so differently and my points were not points and it rippled so THANK YOU

[@jayakriti1155]

The way you explain is the best, I became fan of you and your work. Love all of your works :)

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you so much 😀

[@sharimuhamad5905]

Finally a pattern I can understand. I attempted this blanket 2 times and always get lost on round 6 and 7. So I can’t wait to try your method.

[@TheSkully123]

You create the most beautiful patterns. I've been crocheting for about 10 years now and have been following your channel and am learning a lot from you.

Hello Bella Coco! My mum who doesn't have a KZbin account wants me to comment on your page to thank you for your very insightful and clear tutorials. She really appreciates it and she's having loads of fun practicing her crocheting skills daily now.

Please tell your Mum that she is very welcome :)

[@brendascuccimarri8138]

Nice blanket. Definitely want to give it a try.

[@bellacococrochet]

It's lovely isn't it, let me know if you decide to make it :)

[@susansalih915]

Thank you for your latest video so easy to follow. Have you ever crochet baby garments would be nice to follow a tutorial

[@rhiannonfuge]

I've just finished my blanket and wondered if you had any ideas for a border or if you'd just leave it as it is?

[@sarabaalla4328]

LOVE this pattern Sarah-Jayne!! Going to start it right now with the yarn I brought yesterday😂💙xxx

[@elsaguarde7699]

Beautiful design thank you

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome 😊

[@paulinemcleggan7585]

I love the way you teach us, you are so thorough and helpful. I have a baby in mind who will be born in August. Which yarn would you suggest? With the blanket above how much wool did you use? . I keep looking at the blanket and it looks so soft and squishy 🙃

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you so much! It's really down to personal preference: a cotton blanket would be nice and cool for an August baby, but acrylic yarn is more hardwearing and easier to care for imo. Yarns that contain merino wool are always lovely for babies too as they are very soft 🙂

[@MunchieCoffee]

I loved it and so easy to follow and im left handed and could follow which i love even more

[@bellacococrochet]

I'm so glad that you were able to follow it :)

[@mohamedshehata8590]

I love you so much Bella coco

[@sarahb7283]

Hiya, thank you for another great tutorial. Can't wait to try this one, It's beautiful. The wool looks gorgeous to work with. I've ordered my wool pack for the CAL, looks like this will wool will be my next order ☺️. Hope all ok. Take care and lots of love. Xxx

[@NTopsJoon]

Love the nail polish

[@theastewart6721]

To k lo: I received an alert that you replied and I read your comment but I can’t find it even though it brings me here. So if you see this response I say whichever tutorial works best for you is certainly the way to go! Sarah-Jayne is very clear in her instruction! I made one of these a few years ago in our class and we gave them to the NICU. It was smaller for preemies! I have the pattern somewhere lol.

[@harveywhite3029]

Hi and thank you for learning me how to crochet I have been crocheting for about 4yrs now and still learning this is my 1st time doing the star blanket its beautiful how many rows do you do or do I just keep going till I think it's big enough thank you xxx

[@bellacococrochet]

You’re welcome, I’m happy to have helped 😊 You can just keep going with the star until it’s as big as you want it.

[@mariainezdearaujocunha1881]

[@NaomiCurleycallingspirit]

Im just off to get more wool to finish this off, love your tutorials just wondering Do you have any tutorials for tea towel holders/toppers please?

[@robertacreen6495]

Hi I was wondering do you have a written pattern for this please xx

[@susieinthecountry4434]

the stitch count on the screen is very helpful but a bit confusing when increasing in the "hills and valleys".

[@ritaschiferl3615]

What other color combos would you suggest? Beautiful blanket!

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you there are so many different colour combinations, maybe you could have a look on different yarn sites and play around with colours or visit your local yarn shop :)

[@MsSamanatha]

I know you did this pattern back in 2018 but after all my dang video watching I thought hmmm bella has to have something and after me getting aggregated pitching yarn just kidding I felt like it lol.. I have this down thank you so much for making it plain jane sort of speak. 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 I will tag you on instagram when I finish it right along with one of my recent pieces bless ya😊
