FAQ's
-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

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.

Hello have just discovered crochet - I am a designer living in Belgium and am back in full flow into the 70's so I feel I must discover what all this is about. Therefore am taking small and timid steps towards this kind of art which previously was reserved in my mind to grandma's settee covers. Am entranced and seduced. Would also like to mention that your tuto is friendly, encouraging and you must be from more or less the same area as I in the UK .... Up NORTH ??? I loved this tutorial. Many thanks, Kay

You are the only one I watch for crochet and understand! I made the little blanket bunny with your help. Now I want to venture further so... I've just downloaded a lovely cardigan pattern in this stitch, but I can't figure out for the life of me what I need to do!! Is it possible to ask you what I have to do to start please? Is there a way of sharing the pattern with you? I'd really appreciate your help. Thank you so much

Hi I’m a beginner at crochet and your shawl was the first thing I made thank you and I love it is there a way I can make into a poncho x

You’re welcome 😊 To make this into a poncho you could make two separate shawls and then join the long sides together, leaving a space in the middle.

Hi again. Has anypne out there any idea if i can keep increasing this shawl. Thank you

[@bellacococrochet]

Yes, you can keep repeating the pattern until the shawl reaches the size you want 😊

[@megwclark]

LOve this video. How many yards would you buy for a large shawl?

[@bellacococrochet]

Thank you so much! 😊 For a very large shawl I would say two or three 100g balls of DK weight yarn. If you have any left over you can use it to add a fringe around the edge of the shawl which looks lovely!

[@beatriceperez7922]

how you make the end of the shawl the same way you started ?

I am sure I am not the only one with this memory condition. You have beautiful projects!! Thank you for taking the time to read this. 🙂

[@bellacococrochet]

Maryanne McPherson I do provide written patterns for some projects. It simply comes down to a matter of time. Having to do written patterns on a weekly basis, as well as filming and editing a video takes more time than people realise x

[@chikkime]

Just a question, I've learned on other tutorials that a double crochet is when you yarn over. You did what I would call a single crochet into each loop, while you called it a double crochet. I this different from UK to US? It's a bit confusing....

[@CJGem1994]

chikkime uk to us Double treble = triple Treble = double Double = single. I'm pretty sure her double stitches are single sitches to us

[@pennyporras1980]

How much yarn did you use ,I love it

[@bellacococrochet]

I've only made a sample piece here, but it's not much of a yarn eater. Depending on the size you wish to make, I would estimate between 100-200g x

[@sophiedryburgh661]

Hi I know this is a super old video, but does anyone know how I can do this pattern so it has a straight edge instead of it coming out in a triangle shape?

[@bellacococrochet]

If you wanted to crochet something similar but in a rectangular/square shape you can do so by: chaining an odd number to begin with, double crochet into each stitch for the first row, then for the second row slip stitch into the second stitch, chain two, skip a stitch, slip stitch into the next stitch and repeat across the row. For subsequent rows you can slip stitch into the chain spaces with chain twos in between 😊

[@janebingham5060]

Hi Just wondering is this is a pattern that can be made bigger. Regards❤

[@bellacococrochet]

Yes, you can continue working this pattern until you reach the size you want 😊

[@kaminisghost]

Live and watch and follow from another country. Don’t have the same yarn. The yarn here doesn’t give any hook specifications. It’s just plain yarn.I don’t have anything to go by. Could you specify which hook to use?

[@bellacococrochet]

I am unable to specify which hook for you to use as this normally depends on the yarn you are using. I do not know what type of yarn you have so it's very difficult for me to suggest a hook size to you. Maybe you could do a few sample pieces with different size hooks to see which one suits you best. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help and wish you good luck with your project :)

[@lyndaalexander6582]

It would be helpful if you showed us the finished shawl and gave us the approx finished dimensions before starting the video. Love the way you explain every step-I have relearned to crochet by watching you. Thank you.

Lovely idea, but why do you have to count aloud all the time???? I find it very of putting, why don't you count in your head & say at the end how many stitches you have done, like other people on u tube do

[@kimquinn7728]

Some people may have short term memory loss, like me, and find repetition helpful because what we have just heard is so quickly gone. The reinforcement is much appreciated. Some people have cognitive deficits and simply saying or doing isn't enough. However, if sound and action is put together...voila! It clicks and "I get it!" If you can be a bit patient you have the option of watching simply 1 or 2 rows with sound and then mute the rest. I am grateful for each bit of instruction however it may come.🥰

[@helencornish2821]

Turn the sound down then

[@snowbird9660]

Maybe I missed something but the finished shawl looks like it was made for a doll. Am I supposed to know how to make this for an adult human being? Smh

[@bellacococrochet]

Hi Cynthia, you would just continue the pattern until the shawl reaches your desired size, so begin each row with eight chain stitches (three count as the first stitch, five as the joining chain) and then double crochet in each circle along. In this way, you will add another circle each row and the shawl will grow bigger. 🙂

[@kimquinn7728]

This pattern just gets you started. It just has 1 repeat row. If you make 2 shawls, this pattern, 1 wearer may be 4'10" and the 2nd may be 5'8". You simply add on rows to desired length.
