CROCHET LEFT HANDED: Corner to corner blanket tutorial | Bella Coco

[@doje2810]

I don’t know if you read your comments or not. I bought a c2c design book- trying to learn c2c. It was confusing me about the turns. Watching your video cleared it up immediately. Thank you for taking the time to put up L. Handed videos along with the right handed ones.

[@jolynngamble7413]

I am a lefty and I have tried other tutorial's and yours is the first that I was able to complete. I have successfully completed my first C2C blanket. Thank you so much!

[@KnitsOnIce]

Sarah Jayne, I'm smitten with your tutorials on crochet and enjoy them beyond words. You have a pleasing voice. Your "accent" (I live in Colorado, USA) is a joy to listen to and I have been learning all sorts of crochet stitches. Your left handed tutorials are well used by me. Thank you. I know you will be very busy after October 2017 and I'm excited for you. I hope you will be able to find time for your internet fans but as a mom of 2 grown up kiddos, I get that you may not have a spare moment. Know that you are very appreciated in the Western Colorado Rockies.

[@Starrysong]

I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm a self taught lefty, though I'm not very good. I don't have any left handed friends who crochet near me. I look forward to improving my crochet skills.

I’m a lefty too and this is the first time I’m doing crocheting xxxx

Thank you so much for posting a left-handed version of this technique! I don't usually have trouble learning from right-handed versions of crochet but for some reason, I couldn't get this one. So happy to be finally able to accomplish this technique. You demonstrated everything so well. Thank you again!

[@tresgib]

So happy I found your page. I have been crocheting for a little over three years. Thanks to you tube. I am self taught. It's such a relief to have someone that is left handed, it's hard some time as a lefty to learn new stiches from someone that is right handed. This has helped me a lot. Again Thanks, T.G😊

[@dennismorton6833]

Glad I came across your video for lefty's, tried following a right handed one but couldn't get it right, wasn't looking forward to the decreasing part but it was easier than I thought and managed now to get some wool and make something. Thank you Susan.........

[@anneabbott5415]

Thanks so much for this video. I was scared to try c2c but following your tutorial I'm in a much happier place to try to create a blanket. I'll certainly be looking at more of your left handed tutorials.

[@sherritucker511]

I am relearning how to crochet again after a stroke so happy that you have these videos

[@justme5964]

I so glad I found you ,being left handed I always found it hard to crochet but your video make it so clear and easy to to follow so thank you Bella.

[@amandavollick9872]

I am in the same boat thank god for people like you. I just taught myself a few months ago and am doing alright I believe. Thanks for your post's

[@KnitsOnIce]

Thank you for taking time to turn the instructions around. I'm also mostly self-taught. Thank you SO much.

[@ellenribolla7275]

What a BEAUTIFUL tutorial, Bella! Your crochet lessons are SO easy to follow! Thank you so much!

[@susanrolon-nelson9463]

Bella, Thank you so very much for posting the left handed series. I finally learned how to crochet!!!

[@jdiscovered6686]

thank you for this clear and simplistic demonstration for us Lefties

[@esgiddings55]

Hurray I got it. Went to bed last night just a little frustrated couldn't get the pattern to work out. Woke up this morking and went back at it..a couple of more runs through the video and I've got it. Thank you for doing the left handed videos, it does help. I will post my victory on your Instagram.😀😀🍺

[@rebeccamulder1816]

Hello from Michigan USA!! Thank you so much for this video!! Normally I do not need to watch left handed videos but I had trouble following a right handed person making a C2C blanket. I have started a C2C finally. I am so happy I found this video and again thank you!! As a lefty I will be interested in your other videos.

[@bellacococrochet]

+Rebecca Mulder my pleasure `:) glad it helped x

[@annewandering]

I had the same problem! I have gotten used to the right hand videos but on c2c it just didn't make sense till I found this video.

[@happycrabknits9109]

[@histress16]

Thank you for making left handed tutorials. You have explained this so well making it easier to understand. i have always followed your channel for some reason I hadn't seen this particular one. So with that being said. I have spent the last 2 years trying to learn using other left handed tutorials and they just haven't worked. I love this tutorial as well as the magic ring another one that made no sense on other channels. I am extremely grateful for you using terms and explanations that are easy to understand and videos that are crisp and that we can see really well.

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome, I am glad that they have been of help to you :)

[@wanderingchook1193]

i love your tutorials, you always explain things clearly and your pace is wonderful, even as a beginner i can keep up! I am so thankful for your left handed tutorials, i am getting better but i just could not understand where things went while watching your right handed one! thank you so much

[@reneemcgrail6944]

OH MY thank you , thank you, thank you. this was so easy for m to follow. I love the pattern and love you for spending time helping old women like myself learn this craft. bless you

[@bellacococrochet]

Ahh you are so very welcome 😀

[@le-annecloster1449]

Thanks Bella Coco, very easy to follow. My practise piece will now be a grocery bag as it’s too nice to pull out. Next is the baby blanket which is what I planned in the first place. Love your videos.

[@antonnettemcknight3954]

I am left handed and self taught not very good with patterns, thanks for the video I can now do corner to corner something I just watched and practiced looking forward to more from you

[@mistyholbrook2131]

finished my first one and love it. crocheting was confusing for me but these tutorials really helped me. Thanks for doing them for left handed folks. Not too many will do that

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for crocheting left handed!!! I LOVE this project & I can't wait to receive my yarn to get started! God Bless you Bella!!!

[@daphvan3265]

You are an amazing instructor! I finally was able to do the c2c pattern. I’m a lefty and have found it difficult to do this, however your tutorial was so thorough and I completely understood it. Thank you!

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome 🙂

[@xanadumindbody]

You are amazing! I’m 48 and first time crocheter. My family tried to teach me but they were all right handed. It confused me soooo bad.. I’m making. Shawl out of this pattern.. so excited for my first project

[@xanadumindbody]

I’ve got to figure out how to make a border on the uneven side.. I think I can figure out something. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you i'm so glad I have been of help to you 😀

[@bellacococrochet]

If you make a double crochet (or US single) in each space between squares and then chain 2 to get to the next space, it will make the sides all look more even and create a nice base for any edging that you would like to use 🙂

[@xanadumindbody]

I ended up chaining 3 then slip stitched to next box.. it made it straighter for top of shawl.. next is a single crochet blanket!

[@xanadumindbody]

I took pictures but can’t figure out how to post here. But thank you sooooo much

[@somsee56]

You are a very good teacher! I’m a lefty and could never get this right. But you made it easy right from the beginning. Thank you so much for this excellent video!

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome :)

[@suestone9113]

Thank you, the directions i had for decreasing were not clear and to see it left handed was wonderful!

[@juliaryan5357]

Thank you for the tutorial, I was having trouble following the right handed ones I have seen

[@TheChristinelarocque]

Thank you so much for this. I'm a lefty who taught myself to knit right handed, but can't seem to crochet right handed, so this removes some of the confusion for me :)

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome :)

[@sarap6862]

Thank you so much for saving my bacon. I’m making a blanket for father’s day and I couldn’t get my head around C2C. I’m a lefty and normally I have no trouble following right hand tutorial but I got so turned around when trying to do this stitch. You helped me so much and you turn your work before you make the next square and that makes so much more sense instead of making the square and then turning as in the other tutorials I watch. Thank you so very much!! 😊

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@alisonpritchard1852]

Thank you for this left handed tutorial…. You make it so easy to follow… I’m doing the decreases now and so happy with what I’ve done 🥳🥰

[@ariellamaria5894]

I LOVE THISS!!! Thank you! I wasn’t understanding any of the C2C tutorials when it came to turning work etc because I’m left handed and it gets confusing watching them. This was absolutely perfect! The angle, the explanation, just everything!!! I’ve watched 5 diff videos and replayed and rewind… I watched this once and could keep up and understand perfectly! I also like how you let us know the UK-US stitch conversion. Thank you for this!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

But I won’t give up yet.. please keep making the tutorials Bella and especially for the left handlers like myself it is so hard to try and follow videos when they are mainly right handed.. I have even tried to crochet right hand but I just can’t get it . Xx

I'm a beginner and left handed too so thank you for this. You explain so well. One question please. I can't seem to find this yarn and it is a whole minefield for me. A completely foreign language. Is the Red Heart yarn you use still DK? I'm trying to find an equivalent. I love the colour change.

Hello. And thank you Ms Bella Coco 🥰 May I ask a question. Before I get thoroughly engrossed in the tutorial. As I am following you to the letter. Mine does not look like yours. Are you crocheting Left Handed or using a software that simply flips your video? This is important. As I have learned fro Other tutorial is appears the same but it’s nit the same. It’s a mirror of a right handed crochet. And is technically different. After my first cluster, and chain the ch tail is located upper right yours is lowers right. Can you please clarify so I can continue. I’ll try to see what I am doing wrong. And come back. I love learning from you. I know how to crochet well. I just don’t know all the different stitches. My focus is amigurumi. I love single crochet although it’s a yarn gobbler. Lol.

How can I get these left hand directions printed out in pdf

[@Bugsiebellydance]

Do you have any advice as to why mine seems to be more holey than yours please?? Other than my lack of expertise 😁

[@bellacococrochet]

I would go down a hook size which will make the stitches much closer with less gaps 😊

[@johnawrzosek6127]

Do you have a PDF written pattern for beginners Left handed?

[@VickyReplogle]

If I wanted to make a c2c king size blanket how do I know when to decrease

[@bellacococrochet]

It would be a case of measuring your blanket as you go until you reach the width that you want; you can then start the decreases 😊

[@KhoaNguyen-kk3qj]

Last year I crocheted a 2mx1.8m c2c blanket but now I cannot even remember how to star the new round 😅😅😅

[@emmasuttling3796]

I do have a question I what to know what is the easiest thing to crochet for a beginner xxx

[@bellacococrochet]

I think many people start their crochet journey by making a traditional granny square 😊 I have a video tutorial available here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXKveISahcSDhdk

[@mommy9704]

I dont understand how to decrease.. what's the importance of that.. why cant u just c2c without decreasing till u get to the end?

[@lottiesschoolfordogs4480]

You can if you want a triangular blanket, but the first half builds up the triangle, when you start to decrease, you're making the triangle go the other way to turn it into a square.

[@mommy9704]

Watching and rewatching I finally got it, THANK YOU!
