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 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?

I wont watch anyone else. Your really the best to me.

[@bellacococrochet]

Ahh thank you so much :)

[@minisake2091]

I am a beginner, and have watched 10 videos on the moss stitch. This is the only one that 'clicked' for me. I've just completed a simple dishcloth thanks to you!

[@bellacococrochet]

You're welcome :)

[@user-hm8gn2dy3j]

The Beiia Coco crochet videos are the clearest I have used. Thank you

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@bella-bee]

I’ve made a couple of blankets in this st. It’s great with 3 different colours, dropping each at the end of a row and picking up the next, carry them up the side when not in use. Try with James Brett chunky, as it changes colour gradually so you get a lovely interplay of slowing changing colours. Any slowly changing colours are fun.

[@NicoDiAngelo-eg1mg]

Thanks❤!

[@nikkisamuel2803]

I learned to crochet 6 weeks ago and I LOVE your tutorials. You’ve helped me through lockdown more than I can tell you. Being disabled, this is a new hobby that I’ll keep up. Thank you so much xx

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome :)

[@sarahb2004]

This stitch has been the bane of my existence, but your tutorial has been the best one I have done yet! Thank you for sharing your expertise!

[@moirabennett648]

Hello Bella im disabled and love crocheting blankets for charity I have really enjoyed following u very easy to follow thanks again x

[@julies5515]

Don't know why I waited so long to try the Moss stitch. I love the simplicity of the stitch and it provides it's own border. A lot of thought goes into what stitch I use from color of yarn I'm using, who I'm making it for, how big it will be. Love it and it works up pretty quick. I'm using royal blue and yellow for a blanket going to a college freshman. Will be using this stitch again.

[@jongiddingsuk]

My wife gillian giddings has requested this tutorial from you sarah. She is very happy to see it and has helped her greatly. Thank you!!

Just found your channel and I love it! I really like that you point out the US differences, that you pause before each turn so we can work at our own pace without missing anything and lastly, I love your voice. It is so relaxing and I don't feel rushed or feel like I have to be such a perfectionist. I just have such a good time learning from you! Guess what everyone is getting for Christmas? Thank You!

You have taught me so much and I'm so grateful for your channel so Thank you for that! I was wondering if you could do a video with your version of the cupcake stitch aka the sultan stitch?

[@julies5515]

This is a stitch I am wanting to learn. I started working on it this evening. I have been doing Sc, hdc for a while now. I love how you can change the look of a simple stitch with one chain and it looks like you spent hours on the project. I might have to go back a row on mine i think I started in the wrong spot on the second row.

[@julies5515]

Just a tip...when learning a new stitch definantely start with a solid color of yarn so you can really see what your doing.

[@sonjabirch8583]

Thank you for this vid, my grandson has asked for a blanket, just made his sister one, in lazy wave ripple afghan, but wanted one more for a teenage male. he wants Navy with Red border, think this will be perfect.

[@bellacococrochet]

+Sonja Birch yes it would be great :)

[@julietalarico258]

Thank you so much for your videos. Your voice is very soothing and you go slow enough for me to understand. I'm starting my 4th blanket now using the linen stitch. If you know how to crochet a granny square skull, please let me know. I only need it for one of the squares. Thanks again.

[@kathleenmcrobbie6810]

I watched your tutorial, then watched it again while writing down the instructions. Sounds good yes? well I went wrong and ended up using the HDC instead of the DC but what a lovely mistake. LOL Don't know if that is a stitch or not but I'm adding it to my swatch book. It has a zig-zag effect and isn't so tight. Love your tutorials.

[@Oceangirl_505]
