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?
Camera: amzn.to/2jkNDl2

Thank you! I know this video is old, but it helped me immensely when i couldn't visualize what the written pattern wanted from me. Now I can make an african flower turtle for my love ❤

I love this totural! It's very easy to follow. I'm not new to crocheting. I learned how from my mother, but she only taught me how to do chains and double stitch before she passed away. I've made blankets, pillows, clothing, etc from those basic stitches throughout the years. I'm finally starting to learn more and these videos are helping me so much! You are making crocheting fun again for me. Thank you for bringing the joy back!

While I have crocheted for many years, new squares/tutorials are great. There is always something new to learn. You are an excellent teacher. Being left handed, I like them too. I am going to make this African square, it is beautiful. Is there any place the pattern is written down. It would be easier than writing as you go.

Beautiful, thanks so v much, I've just made my first flower in 'kingfisher' colours with a Sirdar cotton DK yarn (a strong aqua colour, orange, brown and cream) looks divine. Stupid question I know .... do I join all the sides the same way and at the same time? I'm wanting to join lots of flowers for a shawl, thanks again, love your site, Jan

@bellacococrochet 9 лет назад

Jan Kuhnert Hi! I'm not sure what you mean by the same way at the same time? I'd love to try and help you more x

@cazuolmanjes1259 6 лет назад

I think Jan means, do you tie off at each side of the six sides of the hexagon or continually going around in one go around the entire six sides and tie off once. I was wondering the same thing

I love your videos , taught me to do a granny square so I thought I'd try doing something different so I've had a go at the african flower and my first time doing it I've made 1 mistake it's not really noticeable but I know it's there lol but I know now for the next one where I went wrong , I wanted to ask I have a rainbow yarn can I do it in one go without the stopping and changing colour just carry on the pattern with the same wool .

@bellacococrochet 2 года назад

Thank you so much 😊 Yes you could absolutely use a rainbow yarn, or even just one solid colour throughout, so you don’t have as many ends to sew in - but it will obviously look a little different to how it does when using different colours for each round.

@gigglymonkey12 9 месяцев назад

I wish there were counts of how many stitches I should have. Especially round 4. I think mine is off because the last part is frustrating for me because I don’t have enough singles to have it have 4 going down and 4 going up.

@gigglymonkey12 9 месяцев назад

Also for the cream colored round, I wish you had just said skip 2 instead. That would have made it much easier
