CROCHET: NESTING BASKETS | Bella Coco Crochet AD

[@mzdee11]

Truly appreciate that you show and explain how to read a pattern. Then still show us what to do. This is what you call an INCREDIBLE, TALENTED TEACHER. I love this. Thank you very very very very much. Now I can kinda understand those asterisks 😁😍🥰

[@bellacococrochet]

So pleased that you liked it! :) Thank you x

[@AngeliqueAtkinson]

Absolutely.. Positively... I took the highlighting step a bot further. I used a multimcolor pen, to underling the steps in diff colors so o can follow it easier...

[@karenwernham3668]

tyvm i have only been crocheting 5 weeks and made lots of blankets and decided to concentrate on basic stitches and no matter what i still didnt get this, so left it as a project to come back to once i learnt more stitches, i have just sat down and made the most wonderful basket and realise where i went wrong every time.. and now starting to read patterns, wish my gran was alive she said i did not get it but i do gran and wish you were here to show me lots of your creations, tyvm Bella x

I love my basket! Thanks so much for explaining it so clearly and for referencing the written instructions. Deffo need more tutorials like this x

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome :)

[@selseyr]

You are so clear! I love the way you explain the pattern as we go along. That way we can learn how to read the pattern. Yesterday I tried 4 other tutorials and couldn't even get started. Having never crocheted before yesterday I have now made a basket! I can't believe it! Thank you so much.

[@bellacococrochet]

You are very welcome and well done :)

[@carolstefan7662]

After watching your video I have made three baskets! You’ve helped me accomplish something I’ve always wanted to do...crochet my own basket!!!! Thank you!!!

[@carolbaesler3963]

I did like this because you Also showed us how to read the pattern. The basket is small but it turned out great 👍 and I also finally understand where to put the stitch marker.

[@joyceandraysmith9289]

That was by far, the best illustration of a pattern I have seen yet...I appreciated, so much, having the pattern to follow, as I am not too familiar with following patterns....thanks so much for taking that extra time and effort to follow along with the work....and, the baskets are lovely. :)

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you and I'm glad it was helpful :)

WOW!!! I am a poor sleeper and watched this video at 4am. I can't wait for my local hobby craft to open so I can purchase the wool to make a basket. thank you so much for explaining how to do this, with nice clear and timely instructions xx

[@PumpkinSpice1960]

I could never figure out why people don't pay attention, it is not wool it is cotton

Hello Sarah-Jayne 👋 from Kentucky USA 🇺🇲 Awesome design work and easy instructions! 👍 I'm getting back to crochet 1st time since a kid. Could do basic stitches, but couldn't read patterns. I've recently been watching your videos and learned so much. You are a Bella teacher. 😁 I'm excited to make these baskets as my 1st completed project. Need to get this yarn asap. LOL! Thanks so much for sharing your Bella talent. 😃 New Subscriber & Pinterest Happy Crafting ✂️ God Bless You all and Keep You Safe 🙏

Thank you so much :)

[@sarahthomas6239]

I love all your tutorials but this one is super amazing! I love that you teach us with a pattern to help with learning to read patterns 😁 Also I can't believe all this time if I need to use 2 strands together I've always brought 2 balls. I never actually thought of using a strand from each end 🙈 Thank you so much Sarah-Jayne xx

[@cettinaaccetta1819]

Hi Sarah-Jayne, I appreciate so much this video which you have explained the pattern to a T which has helped me to complete four medium baskets. One for myself and the other three for my gorgeous three granddaughters, they chose their colours and the youngest who is eight wanted the last three rows in a different colour and a bow made in chain stitch, I looked at her and thought, hang on why not just as the pattern looks. It was fun after all, they also say, 'Thank you Sarah-Jayne'. Thank you for me too. 😁

[@bellacococrochet]

Hi Cettina, thank you for your lovely comment! I'm so happy to hear that you've found my tutorial useful 🙂

Wonderful ! The tutorial was so good ! i made a bigger basket & it did up nice. Thanks so much

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome 😀

[@heatherkorenek8188]

Question! To make the basket bigger, do you just add one extra double crochet to each stitch per round? Example: she ends with 2 double crochet and 1 double crochet for 4 stitches. To make it bigger do we then do 2 double crochet and 1 double for 5 stitches, so on and so forth?

[@lorischreiner1591]

[@jojarvis1032]

Your videos are my go to for the great instructions. I have only just started crocheting and can never get the count right. Joining the end of line and starting a new one. Would this work if I just crocheted in the round? Thanks again

Thanks so much for this tutorial. You really helped me to understand reading the pattern. I love the yarn you used. So pretty. I always learn so much from you and your tutorials are lovely and clear and easy to follow. I think I will make these very soon.

[@88sons]

You have done a fabulous job in explaining ,esp with reading the patterns. Could u help me decipher this please? With 2 strands of yarn held together, chain or ch 3 (2 chs counts as half double crochet or hdc), hdc 7 times in beg ch (8 hdc)....Thankyou

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you, I'm glad you've found my tutorial helpful 😊 The pattern is telling you to make a starting chain of 3, and then work 7 half double crochets (or half treble crochets in UK terms) into the chain furthest from the hook. The 2 skipped chains also count as a stitch, giving you 8 stitches in total. You could also work a magic circle and make 8 half double crochets into the centre.

[@Anonymous-dr8qn]

I love these baskets and your tutorials are great. I am going to try to make the base larger and continue with your instructions so I can get the size I want. Wish me luck and if you have any advice please share. Thank you!

[@TheBrosis28]

This video is amazing. I had only knitted scarves before and didn't think I could be able to do this, but with your explanations I could! Thank you so much. Question: If I want to make it even bigger, should I just continue adding rounds in the same way? Example: - 7th rnd: Ch 1. *2 sc in next sc. 1 sc in each of next 5 sc. Rep from * around. Join. - 8th rnd: Ch 1. *2 sc in next sc. 1 sc in each of next 6 sc. Rep from * around. Join. And so on?

[@bellacococrochet]

You're very welcome, I'm so happy you've found my video useful 🙂 I've had a look at the pattern for you and yes, that's the method I would use if I wanted to make an even bigger basket. 🙂

[@pampreast9921]

Love it....Worked right along with ya!!!! TFS

[@PumpkinSpice1960]

Bella Coco, I would like to take the time to tell you how much I appreciate your wonderful tutorials. I just don't know how you constantly endure the ignorant questions you constantly get after all the answers were given at the beginning of the tutorial, It almost seems like some of these people don't even know how to look up a yarn to see what the weight is . I'm sorry to vent but it just seems like no one can even think for themselves any more ( helpless and hopeless)

[@bellacococrochet]

[@tracyelliott1075]

This is a great tutorial! Thank you for this video! If I wanted to make the diameter of the basket larger, how would I do this please?

[@bellacococrochet]

You're welcome, I'm glad you like it 😊 To make a bigger basket I would simply use a bigger hook/thicker yarn - you can even hold two strands of yarn held double. This way you don't need to alter the pattern.

[@linedemers7493]

thank you for answering my question

[@bellacococrochet]

No problem :)

[@heatheroertel3792]

Thank you so much for this tutorial its great. If I wanted to make the base bigger do i just continue going round and increasing the number of single crochet stitches?

[@bellacococrochet]

You're welcome 😊 Yes, you can just continue adding rounds, increasing the number of single crochet stitches in between the increases each time.

[@tanyabrydon8459]

If I wanted to make the basket, bigger, can I keep going with rounds increasing until back loop round starts to make diameter bigger?

[@bellacococrochet]

Yes, you can add more rounds to the base before you start the sides of the basket. You can also increase your hook size and use thicker yarn (even two strands held together) and follow the pattern the same 😊

[@emilyharrison87]

Just made one! Love it!

[@pluepenguin3079]

[@kaydavis2310]

I'm using a different yarn. The yarn suggests a UK 6 hook. When I get to the last 2 rows of the base, the base goes out of shape (wavy). I am by nature a tight crocheter. Should I change the size of my hook or tension....or maybe both?

[@bellacococrochet]

I would double check your stitch count as normally when crochet goes wavy and out of shape, it’s because there are too many stitches in too small a space. If everything is correct then definitely try adjusting your hook size; it’s always best to let your tools do the work for you 😊

[@kaydavis2310]

@@bellacococrochet Stitch count was correct. I forged it, started again loosening my tension.👍

[@berniesengers9844]

Hi, loved watching this. New to crochet but wondering if you wanted to make the basket even larger, would you just double the amount of stitches etc its telling you to do?

[@bellacococrochet]

If you want to make the basket larger the simplest thing to do is to use a thicker yarn and a bigger hook; you can even use two strands of yarn held together. That way, you don't have to make any adjustments to the pattern 😊

[@Janice-mf4dn]

Hi Sarah-Jayne, thank you so much for these instructions, you make everything seem so easy! I am just going to start making one of these baskets and am having trouble removing the cardboard cone from the thread. Can you tell me what you used to push yours through please as I can’t seem to get mine to budge? Many thanks 😊

[@bellacococrochet]

It just takes a bit of manipulation to remove the cone, if you push a little from the top and then pull a little from the bottom, and keep repeating it should eventually come loose 😊

[@Janice-mf4dn]

Thank you 👍

[@cindydriver9112]

Pretty colors!

[@bellacococrochet]

[@niniksetiawan6034]

Hello Sarah! I'm wondering if I can do this with a bulky type yarn or even t-shirt yarn? Most of the yarn sold in my country is pilling really baaaaadly and imported branded yarn like Lily n Sugar or Lion brand or even Bernat are super expensive...t-shirt yarn on the other hand, is cheap and thick >.

[@mywonderfullife4491]

I absolutely LOVE this. Im going to try to make a really large one, would you suggest just following the increase pattern (2sc then 5,6,7,8 and so on) until i reach the size i would like? I dont think ive ever made a circle much bigger than the start of a hat, not sure if it starts to warp. Thank you!

[@trinam2503]

I was curious, so I tried it. It works up until 9. Then starts to warp a bit. But that gave me a basket approx 8in wide. Then when I did the sides, they weren't straight up, they flopped a little outward. So on row 4, every 10 stitches I reduced by one. It wasnt noticable and gave me nice straight sides. Hope that helps!

Can I use any Aran/worsted weight yarn? And how much yarn is needed just for the large one please? Thank you. You are such an awesome teacher. 🤩🤩😊

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you so much 😊 I would recommend using cotton yarn for this one. I can't say exactly how much yarn just for the large basket, but 400g of yarn is enough for all three. You can find more details including the free written pattern on my blog here: bellacococrochet.com/crochet-nesting-baskets/
