//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.

-How much yarn do I need?
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.

I’ve been crocheting for 30 years and just learning about this now.... thank you
You are very welcome :)
Thank you so very much! This would have saved me so much time and frustration had I known this years ago. Thank you so much you have greatly helped me. I will be using this technique from now on when this happens.
I'm glad it helped :)
Thank you! I’m working on a shell stitch baby blanket and at the end of the first row I discovered too many chain stitches. Your video was awesome!
You're very welcome :)
Thank you so much! I have been trying out new stiches lately and I often have either a couple too many, or I can't finish the pattern. Now I won't have to start over!!
You are very welcome :)
Omg! Thank you! This is awesome.
Frogging sucks.
I'm fairly new to crocheting and keep having to frog because the count is off and can't just get into the groove of crocheting, where I get to just zone out and relax.
Great tip.
Thank you for sharing these techniques. Very helpful!
You are very welcome :)
I've used the decrease before, but I didn't think of the increase. From now on it'll save me a lot of time 😊
👍 :)
It seems so obvious to do but I never thought of it. Saved me from having to frog the foundation for a massive blanket.
Glad it was helpful :)
Thanks so much for this tip I have had this happen so many times and hate having to rip out and start over.
Now I want have to rip out again!!!!
You are very welcome :)
Thank you. This is very helpful 😊
You are very welcome :)
Very useful, thanks bella 🥰
You’re welcome 😊
Cool too. Just used it. Although I had a small tail I was able to add two stitches I was short off after thinking I had chained 124❤
THANK YOU! Just saved me a lot of work and frustration!
Glad it was of help to you :)
Thanks so much! I wish I knew about this when I started crocheting. It's going to save me such much time unravelling and starting over!

I wish I'd thought of looking for this before I had undone and redone my foundation row and chain for a blanket ! about 5x. I was getting so tired of counting stitches over and over even though I used markers every 20 sts. Nightmare! Thank you so much for this!
You are welcome :)
I needed this two days ago😂 but have saved for future reference
I remember when I was so annoyed that I had to unravel my super long first row two times because I didn't had the correct length and then I ditched that project. Now I can go back to it. Thank you for sharing this tip! Merry Christmas! 🎄
You are very welcome :)

I’m really struggling to make a beanie with a homemade crochet hook that is not thin enough, what should I do?
hi ! thank you so much for your video! I would like to know if it also works for a closed/ joined foundation chain ? thank you again 🌸
You're welcome 😊 In order to be able to do this, your foundation chain would need to be flat, i.e. not joined in the round. If you find you have the wrong number of chains in this case, you would need to undo the slip stitch and then adjust it.
@@bellacococrochet okay thank you so much ! ☺️
What's the best way to learn Crochet? I have been doing my chain stitch over and over again I am trying to get it perfect am I doing this right I am a Newbie
is there any good trick for keeping the edge of my work straight all the time
Hi Line I have a tutorial giving tips on how to keep a straight edge, here is the link:- th-cam.com/video/YA46KLsg9LM/w-d-xo.html I hope this helps :)
Hello. Thank you for this really helpful video. Would you be able to help me with this: what if in a pattern with bobbles where I've added some hdc in between bobbles and I notice that I've added an additional bobble and realise it too late as I've already worked on a lot of rows like in a sweater!! Is there a way to undo the bobble without ripping it all out and redoing it? Do let me know. Waiting for an early reply
You’re welcome 😊 I don’t think I would be tempted to try and undo one bobble as this would risk all of your hard work coming undone. As bobbles are worked on the wrong side (so that they push out onto the correct side of the work) could you try and poke it through so that it shows on the inside instead?
@@bellacococrochet that's a very good idea. It makes so much sense. Thanks so much for your prompt reply. I will definitely try that. Best regards...
how many chains for full size crochet blanket
This would depend on the yarn you are using, your hook size and your personal tension. Just chain until you get to the size you want :)
Does this work in the middle of projects?
This only works to correct the initial foundation chain 😊
@@bellacococrochet ah damn thank you for the response anyway 😊
I’m here because I have just frogged a foundation chain FOUR times as I can’t seem to get the count right.
I think the foundation chain can be the trickiest part of crocheting! Hopefully with this tutorial you’ve found it easy to add or take away some chains to give you the correct number 😊
What happens when you notice it and your like five rows deep 😅😅😅 any help would be appreciated please
As you've already worked five rows I'll assume that you have too many chain stitches, in which case you can unpick those in exactly the same way as shown 😊 Unfortunately if you're too short of stitches then I think you'll have to frog back to row one 🙈
