No matter how hard crochet gets for you I want you to keep trying because if you try enough I know you can do it. Edit: Yo, Thanks for all the likes guys, I really appreciate it!
Love how she didn't just shove a sped up "tutorial" in our faces but she actually explained everything super clearly step-by-step this was extremely helpful tysm! ❤
I swear, it took me so long to learn this stitch.... apparently I don't know how to fking COUNT 🤣🤣🤣 after lots of struggling and trying over again and again, I FINALLY GOT A HANG OF IT. that made me genuinely happy. Whoever is reading this DON'T GIVE UP ON TRYING TO LEARN THIS, YOU CAN DOOO IT! 🥰🥰
I can do the stitch but it's keeping the tension even I have to master. I don't have a ring finger on my left hand... slight accident with a circular saw
Super beginner here! The process of crocheting takes several steps… I only just mastered the slip knot this morning after practicing a little bit for 2 days…and just now made my first chain… now I am just practicing the chain until I have mastered the tension and holding the crochet hook which is an art in itself…when I find myself getting frustrated I just unravel the string and try again and it’s getting better!!! Maybe tomorrow I will be able to move onto the next step. Thank you for your help!!
I'm doing the same. Step by step is what's working for me. I can do basic knitting but this is a whole different thing. You're spot on, holding the hook properly is an art form and managing tension is so tricky. It's incredibly frustrating but utterly rewarding and moreish when you see the progress. Good luck with your journey. :)
I’ve just started learning recently too and I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve unraveled my work, it’s actually kind of satisfying though 😅 I’m getting the hang of doing the first row of the single stitch and starting to learn the second row
@@claireburroughs9025 you got this I try to learn for the past 5 years or so and something just worked this time so keep trying even if you wait a year like I did every time 😂😭
This is an amazing tutorial,I have been trying to master crotchet since my early teens I m now 67 and after watching this tutorial I've finally cracked it ,this was two weeks ago ,I'm now half way through making a blanket out of granny squares ,well done brilliant teacher , thankyou
Soooo this is not a success story or anything but maybe it can motivate some. About 10 years ago I saw my friend crocheting in class. I was in 8th grade, we had sewing lessons incorporated into the curricula, but there were no crocheting and knitting lessons. I asked my friend to teach me, I even bought a hook and yarn myself but... somehow I just didn't understand my friend's explanation and after trying and trying and always failing, I gave up. Now I've never been a very patient or diligent one, so I just thought "maybe this isn't for me anyway" and for a solid 10 years believed that I'd never be able to do it at all. I'd always say "yeah I can sew but I could never crochet/knit". Then suddenly I was asked to sew a felt doll as a gift for a graduating friend. As I sew I thought to myself, "well, isn't this a relaxing hobby?" The reason why it's relaxing is because I do not need to think anymore once the doll plan is set, I just need to repeat the same movements (sewing) without thinking. Now this is different from my other hobby which is drawing, with drawing I feel like even if you've had it all planned (e.g. by sketching first) you always have to dynamically think about stuff along the way. It's a fun and stimulating hobby, but not relaxing enough for me. Again this is just what I think, as a comparison to sewing. Then I suddenly thought, "well... what about I try crocheting again?" So I watched these tutorials and sure it looked easy enough, I've always been a person who learns the most through examples not explanations, and finally bought a new set of hook and yarn because I lost my previous one from the middle school days. Lo and behold after some beginner mistakes... I was able to finish a piece from the tutorial. It's a non-functional small square, but I did it. I finally gained the skill I had believed I could never get for the last 10 years. I thought hard about it after. How many opportunities and experiences have we lost just because we think we can't, and will never be able, to do something? Alright. To end this, I encourage you guys to try something new, even if you have failed on it before! Thank you Bella Coco for the tutor! Please continue making excellent tutorials on crocheting! ♡
What a lovely encouraging story. Crochet is practice and patience and once you have mastered the basics can be a very relaxing and distressing hobby. I'm so glad that you tried again and really pleased that my tutorials are of help to you, as the saying goes 'if at first you don't succeed try, try again' Well done 😀
I tried to follow another tutorial and you explain it so much better!! I was ready to give it up until I found your videos! I have been trying to learn the past 4 days and I can finally do a single crochet, thanks to you!
You have to remember that crochet is practice and patience so don't give up, keep trying and it will get easier. If you find yourself getting frustrated please put your work down and go back to it later or even the next day :)
At last a video that really is for beginners! 👏👏👏 it’s very clearly explained and takes you through the steps nice and slowly. Thank you from all us newbie crocheters 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@bellacococrochet u really have no idea how much ur video suited for novices. While getting a good finish will take time, I made my first swatch in one day. You're one of the best teachers I've seen. Thank you.
This is the ONLY way I can learn to crochet. I've tried sooo many different tutorials and videos and this is the only one that I've ACTUALLY made progress with my crochet. I can actually make things and have fun with the craft now!
as a beginner, this is actually hard HAHAHAHA but i find this activity interesting because it shuts my mind off, like a mental noise cancelling-it's a good distraction for me, maybe this will be my new hobby this year
@@lxvelyrose5823 same but I bought the crochet stuff for my mum, I wanna learn but when I tried to make a square I made a NIPPLE.. literally a hat for dolls lmao
This is my favorite channel I have found for crochet tutorials!! She explains everything so well including how to hold the yarn, and where to put tension at. Other channels don’t take the time to explain this, and to a beginner this is all stuff you need to know. I really appreciate that she takes the time to explain even the small details.
It took me a few tries and undoing stitches, but i did it! instead of doing the sample square I crocheted a headband with buttons and button holes for myself.
The hardest thing about crocheting truly is holding the hook correctly/ optimally. I think this is why grandmas teach it best. They hold the child’s hands and affectionately guide them.
For those of us whose mind prefers learning through exploring, and doesn't do very well with linear step-by-step processes: just crochet wildly and see what happens. My square quickly went off course. And instead of trying over or giving up, as I did before, I decided to just roll with it. And I ended up with a very cute little bowl. ☘️
This actually was so helpful I finished making a small “scarf” for my cat and it’s only my 2nd day it’s not perfect but I’m happy. Thank you for help!! ❤️
Thanks v much. I love that you don’t add background music and your teaching style is excellent. I’m a knitter and had trouble learning to crochet as a child with my mother, just finding holding the crochet hook and wool is difficult to master.
I usually don't comment on videos, but I just had to this time. My sister recently got a crochet kit and tried to learn, but eventually gave up. I've wanted to learn crochet for a while, and since I'm still on summer break and the kit was just sitting there, I thought I'd give it a try. I know this might seem a bit out of place considering the heartfelt comments here, but I actually got the hang of this stitch in just a few hours! I've never crocheted before, and now I'm halfway through a 60-inch scarf. This video worked like magic for me, and I've become a bit obsessed-considering I've already crocheted 30 inches in the last 24 hours since I started. For anyone still struggling, hang in there! The feeling of creating something with your own hands and seeing it come together is incredible. Thank you, Bella! This tutorial is amazing, and you're an amazing human being :)
I'm a super beginner into the crochet. Today is my second day watching you tutorial, and finally i can understand what you've taught after soo many mistakes i've been made. Thank you soo much. I'll go to the next step.
Don't give up, after more practise you will become better and better at identifying the stitches 😊 Make sure you are starting with a small amount of stitches so you can count them across and also use stitch markers or loops of a contrasting colour yarn to mark off each stitch, then once you turn over to work back along the row you will be able to identify them much easier.
Quite possibly the best step-by-step video for a beginner 🙌🏻 Thank you thank you! I’ve been stumped on how to do a single crochet for two days, finally got it figured out because of you!!
Thank you SO much for the easy to follow tutorials! It took an hour or so of just doing chain stitches until I was comfortable with doing it, and then moved onto finally doing single crochets and I was feeling so accomplished. Granted the stitches are VERY ugly right now and is a bit loose but I feel like I am making some progress! :)
Hi LittleKeenBean, You are very welcome, the secret is practice and patience which it seems you already have. Just keep going and don't give up and you will improve daily. 🙂
OMG THANK YOU THANL YOU THANK YOU! After many attempts over the years I’ve FINALLY been able to learn crochet!!!! I will keep practice these first 2 videos before I continue xx😊
This has been so useful for my 6 year old who has been learning to crochet with her Grandma, she says " I really enjoyed your video, thank you Bella coco"
Thanks for this, my new years resolution is to learn crochet, mostly as I'm sick of looking for knitting patterns and finding crochet ones instead! Very helpful videos👍
Learn from my youtube video(not yet started.. when I upload it I'll just say...k ..it's good to crochet !! That make us proud!!! Follow my Instagram page @ayfuna__
Looked at several sources to learn this basic stitch..nada .....watched 2 of your video's and I'M DOING IT! Thank you so much for this clear instruction! My neurodiverse brain appreciates it very much!🥰
I've been trying to learn how to crochet for 10 years (I'm 23). I could only ever make a line of chain stitches. Now, I have multiple rows done of this single stitch. Great video, thank you ❤️
I am very proud of myself, I managed to learn how to do the slip knot, chain, and one row of single stitch. The next day I then learned how to do the second row!!!! Your tutorials are so helpful! I've always been the type of person who needs to watch someone do it and not have it explained on a piece of paper. Also, if your reading this, never ever give up!!!! 💖💖
Thank you so much!!!! My mom taught me when I was a small child and I had forgotten every detail; how to turn and start a new row, which stitch and how many loops should appear to be on the hook etc. This was an great video, you are a wonderful teacher. Very detailed without being overwhelming or too fast to follow along. Absolutely wonderful!
Thank you for this.... I've been crocheting for a year and always a good reminder especially how to do the end of the rows - sometimes I still have trouble. Have a good day :)
As a beginner there are so many videos out there. This video for me has been absolutely the best so far. I just started 4 days ago and after watching this I really feel like I'll be able to crochet.
literally just started learning crochet today. after many breakdowns, meltdowns and yelling at my yarn, i landed here and this has been the most helpful tutorial yet. thank you so much!
I just found this tutorial... on # 2 It's been over 30 yrs since I last crocheted. This is wonderful to watch to get back into this. Especially now that we are all quarantined in our homes. Stay safe everyone and remember Social Distancing and the 6' apart rule.
My favourite part was when you said, “This is actually the hardest row to do.” I just started an hour ago and went quite well with the chains but struggled with the row. I’ve figured out what I think I’m doing wrong and will persevere with trying again tomorrow. Thank you
this video is so crispy and easy to see! i just bought a crochet stick and some yarn- it took me about an hour, but i have a small square! keeping the hand tension consistent is hard, but your videos really help🙇
This one made so much sense. The other ones were not clear about when inserting and where to insert they are just like “now insert and hook and pull through.” And they pull through like two hooks and I’m like wait what.
I've always wanted to crochet, but I never got the chance. But now I have my own set of hooks and yarn, I got down to crocheting, it's very simple (once you learn the basics) and relaxing. Perfect for everyone! I can keep challenging myself to make amazing pieces and works of art. Though, if you're a beginner, start off small. This/these tutorial(s) are AMAZING, @Bella Coco! Keep making them, I love it!
Thank you for your clear instructions. I started an Afghan several years ago and left it. When I tried to go back, I couldn't remember how to do it but as soon as I watched this video, I knew this was what I was doing.
I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!!! i bought a cheap, begginners crochet kit of amazon and the tutorial was very hard to understand. im soo glad i found ur vids, i was about to give up entirely! thank you!
Oooooo I'm so happy! I was able to make a swatch, completely irregular and too tight at one part, too lose on the other, but i learned! Now to undo this one and do again until I can do a perfect one And to use normal yarn, since I used a massive one because I wasn't able to do anything with the regular one lol
I watched 7 videos before I got to yours and I really wished I watched yours first. 🤦♀️. Yours is so easy to follow and I only had to watch your video once to figure it out. Thank you so much!
Just found your channel as i just picked up crocheting as my new hobby. I'm so excited to start and you make it really easy to follow along! Thanks!! (Hannah from the US)
I did all of this in one go twice, and I have never done it in my entire life.I think im a fast learner 🙃 Today was the first day your explanations were so good 👍
It's most likely just down to practise 😊 The more you crochet, the better it will look but you could always try experimenting with different yarns and going up or down a hook size to see if that helps too.
This is a great video, I learned from part one, now I'm here trying to learn the next steps...I'm excited to think I might actually be able to make something if I stick to it!
I've watched a number of how to crochet for beginner videos over the years. I've always given up then I found your videos! Thank you so much for the clear instructions!!!!
Wow. I have tried so many guides and tutorials in the past and none was as clear and helpful as this one. I finally managed to complete a few rows! I’ve been knitting for decades, but until this video crochet has always eluded me, and I always felt stupid for not being able to follow tutorials. But after watching this one (granted I might have had to put it on half speed and watched it several times) I think I finally grasped the concept! I know it’ll take a lot of time and practice to get as comfortable as I am with knitting, especially when it comes to tension, but it’s still a huge milestone for me! Thank you! 💜
You explained this so in depth and simple at the same time, 10/10 teaching skills, I have watched a few other channels but your videos are very easy to follow
Thank you very much, I have a hard time learning to knit and I realized that I have a crochet hook as well so this tutorial you made is very helping! Now I'll just crochet then knit when I am ready to learn it 😂💕
After working for about 2 hours and numerous attempts, I’m ending the day with five rows finished! I can’t wait to continue my work tomorrow and practice more crochet! I’ve always wanted to learn and I am so excited I’m finally doing it!!!
@@bellacococrochet Thanks! I’ve finished the square and crocheted a bee and am working on a snake!! This video helped me understand crochet soo much! Amazing job!
After 4mins I had to take a break, this is too much for my brain and hands to process and I haven't even bought my hooks and yarn yet but I will climb this mountain.
i was looking at another lady's tutorial, i couldnt understand a thing she was doing, i came alone the part one, and this episode and i have managed to crochet a scarf, thank you so much for giving me a boost into my ongoing career.
Today was my first crochet! And I really recommend this video, when I had trouble I would take a small break and get back to it and that helped. It’s really frustrating and annoying but really fun once you get to know it!
No matter how hard crochet gets for you I want you to keep trying because if you try enough I know you can do it.
Edit: Yo, Thanks for all the likes guys, I really appreciate it!

Don't give up, after more practise you will become better and better at identifying the stitches 😊 Make sure you are starting with a small amount of stitches so you can count them across and also use stitch markers or loops of a contrasting colour yarn to mark off each stitch, then once you turn over to work back along the row you will be able to identify them much easier.

I tried doing second row for two days. Now I got it.. 💗 It feels amazing when you do it. Keep trying my friends. It's worth it 💗💯
Well done for not giving up :)
Quite possibly the best step-by-step video for a beginner 🙌🏻 Thank you thank you! I’ve been stumped on how to do a single crochet for two days, finally got it figured out because of you!!
Glad it was helpful :)
Thank you SO much for the easy to follow tutorials! It took an hour or so of just doing chain stitches until I was comfortable with doing it, and then moved onto finally doing single crochets and I was feeling so accomplished. Granted the stitches are VERY ugly right now and is a bit loose but I feel like I am making some progress! :)
Hi LittleKeenBean, You are very welcome, the secret is practice and patience which it seems you already have. Just keep going and don't give up and you will improve daily. 🙂
OMG THANK YOU THANL YOU THANK YOU! After many attempts over the years I’ve FINALLY been able to learn crochet!!!!
I will keep practice these first 2 videos before I continue xx😊
You are welcome and well done for not giving up :)
This has been so useful for my 6 year old who has been learning to crochet with her Grandma, she says " I really enjoyed your video, thank you Bella coco"
Ahh she is very welcome :)
Thanks for this, my new years resolution is to learn crochet, mostly as I'm sick of looking for knitting patterns and finding crochet ones instead!
Very helpful videos👍
You're welcome 😀
Did you do it!?
Her: ..9, 10, 11
Me: .....2........
😂❤️
Me: 1...
Learn from my youtube video(not yet started.. when I upload it I'll just say...k ..it's good to crochet !! That make us proud!!! Follow my Instagram page
@ayfuna__
Here ,,I have uploaded the basic of crochet!!plss do search for it !! I wish it helps u a lot!! @Ayfuna__
Same she was like 11, i was like 3,
Well for me it's a big wonky knot so good job
my nightmares will just be the words ″yarn over, pull through″ repeated over and over again from now on.
Looked at several sources to learn this basic stitch..nada .....watched 2 of your video's and I'M DOING IT! Thank you so much for this clear instruction! My neurodiverse brain appreciates it very much!🥰
You are very welcome :)
I've been trying to learn how to crochet for 10 years (I'm 23). I could only ever make a line of chain stitches. Now, I have multiple rows done of this single stitch. Great video, thank you ❤️
You are very welcome :)
*_OMG... I AM CROCHETING!_*
Thank you _so_ very much, you really are a great teacher. 🤗💕💕💕💕💕
You are very welcome :)
I really understand how to do it . Thx a lot!! I'm just a teenager, this really make it look easier and easy to understand 😍
You're very welcome 😊
I am very proud of myself, I managed to learn how to do the slip knot, chain, and one row of single stitch. The next day I then learned how to do the second row!!!! Your tutorials are so helpful! I've always been the type of person who needs to watch someone do it and not have it explained on a piece of paper. Also, if your reading this, never ever give up!!!! 💖💖
Well done :)
Thank you so much!!!! My mom taught me when I was a small child and I had forgotten every detail; how to turn and start a new row, which stitch and how many loops should appear to be on the hook etc. This was an great video, you are a wonderful teacher. Very detailed without being overwhelming or too fast to follow along. Absolutely wonderful!
You are very welcome and I am so glad that they have been of help to you :)
Thank you for this.... I've been crocheting for a year and always a good reminder especially how to do the end of the rows - sometimes I still have trouble. Have a good day :)
You're very welcome its always good to have a refresher to look back on. Keep going i'm sure you will keep improving :)
As a beginner there are so many videos out there. This video for me has been absolutely the best so far. I just started 4 days ago and after watching this I really feel like I'll be able to crochet.
I am so glad that it has helped you and remember that crochet is practice and patience so keep trying and it will get easier :)
literally just started learning crochet today. after many breakdowns, meltdowns and yelling at my yarn, i landed here and this has been the most helpful tutorial yet. thank you so much!
You are very welcome :)
my toxic trait is thinking I can do this first try 💀
HAHAHA SAME THOO
Gurllllll SAMEEEEE🤡🤡
I did?
@@MusicAddict6669me too But sometimes u dont so it perfectly c:
Me 2
My parents are asking me why I’m crying because I can’t understand how to do it
Yes. I get frustrated also
😂 I can't cry...its frustrating
Fr😭
Keep at it and don’t quit
I just found this tutorial... on # 2 It's been over 30 yrs since I last crocheted. This is wonderful to watch to get back into this. Especially now that we are all quarantined in our homes. Stay safe everyone and remember Social Distancing and the 6' apart rule.
Thank you and hope you and your family all stay safe and well :)
My favourite part was when you said, “This is actually the hardest row to do.”
I just started an hour ago and went quite well with the chains but struggled with the row. I’ve figured out what I think I’m doing wrong and will persevere with trying again tomorrow.
Thank you
You are very welcome and remember that crochet is practice and patience so keep trying and it will get easier :)
“We now have 4 stitches.”
Me: Nope....I now have a big mess.... 😂
Me too lol
Granny heart Square
😂😂
Me too😀...mess..mess ...mess...but she is such a good teacher..🥰
Yup. But her instructions are clear and easy to follow. Just need to get my fingers to do the do
I'm learning how to crochet so then I can make plushies for my friends
That’s so sweet I’m trying to learn so I can make plushies too! Good luck ☺️
Unfortunately my mom does not how to make a plush
What's a plushie?
@@tanyaphilstrom7077 a stuffed toy
same!
this video is so crispy and easy to see!
i just bought a crochet stick and some yarn-
it took me about an hour, but i have a small square! keeping the hand tension consistent is hard, but your videos really help🙇
Haven’t crocheted since I was 15, after realizing I should go under the whole “V” and not just the outside…I got my groove back!! Thank you!
You are very welcome :)
This one made so much sense. The other ones were not clear about when inserting and where to insert they are just like “now insert and hook and pull through.” And they pull through like two hooks and I’m like wait what.
I've always wanted to crochet, but I never got the chance. But now I have my own set of hooks and yarn, I got down to crocheting, it's very simple (once you learn the basics) and relaxing. Perfect for everyone! I can keep challenging myself to make amazing pieces and works of art. Though, if you're a beginner, start off small. This/these tutorial(s) are AMAZING, @Bella Coco! Keep making them, I love it!
Thank you so much :)
Thank you for your clear instructions. I started an Afghan several years ago and left it. When I tried to go back, I couldn't remember how to do it but as soon as I watched this video, I knew this was what I was doing.
You are very welcome :)
This was the first thing I ever did I watched three days ago and now I’m already making frog plushies! Definitely recommend it was really helpful!
I'm glad it was helpful :)
Does anyone find it really satisfying to just watch her do it in silence?
your videos are so helpful ! I've been trying to learn for months and after watching this video I got it in one night !!!!
Well done :)
I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH!!! i bought a cheap, begginners crochet kit of amazon and the tutorial was very hard to understand. im soo glad i found ur vids, i was about to give up entirely! thank you!
You are very welcome :)
so helpful! i learned to crochet in no time at all, im stitching at light speed after only a couple hours of practice!
I'm glad that it was helpful :)
Oooooo I'm so happy! I was able to make a swatch, completely irregular and too tight at one part, too lose on the other, but i learned!
Now to undo this one and do again until I can do a perfect one
And to use normal yarn, since I used a massive one because I wasn't able to do anything with the regular one lol
Well done, remember that crochet is practice and patience so keep trying and it will get easier :)
In the beginning it was really hard then after a couple days of practicing I finally got it and I was so happy
Well done for not giving up :)
@@bellacococrochet thanks!
Haven't crocheted for about 50 years and just delighted with your video!! Thank you
You are very welcome :)
WE still watch her in 2024
I watched 7 videos before I got to yours and I really wished I watched yours first. 🤦♀️. Yours is so easy to follow and I only had to watch your video once to figure it out. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome 🙂
I agree! This is by far the best crocheting video I ran into.
Just found your channel as i just picked up crocheting as my new hobby. I'm so excited to start and you make it really easy to follow along! Thanks!! (Hannah from the US)
You are very welcome and remember that crochet is practice and patience so the more you do the easier it will become. Good luck :)
I did all of this in one go twice, and I have never done it in my entire life.I think im a fast learner 🙃 Today was the first day your explanations were so good 👍
is anyone else trying to make the harry styles cardigan??lol
Meeee
yess,how you doing???
sofiatorres18 pretty good😭 it’s so much work but in the end i know it will be worth it!!! how about you??!
ugh I want to
i’ve had like 5 mental break downs making it, and i’m not even halfway done😭 do any of you have twitter??
I got the chain down, but my single/double just looks like a turd. What am I doing wrong?
It's most likely just down to practise 😊 The more you crochet, the better it will look but you could always try experimenting with different yarns and going up or down a hook size to see if that helps too.
That happens to me sometimes too. Bella Coco is right.
This is a great video, I learned from part one, now I'm here trying to learn the next steps...I'm excited to think I might actually be able to make something if I stick to it!
I've watched a number of how to crochet for beginner videos over the years. I've always given up then I found your videos! Thank you so much for the clear instructions!!!!
You are welcome and I'm glad I could help :)
Okaaay, it might be possible after all. Thank you for these videos. I’m gonna give it another try 😂
I’m watching these hoping my parents get me crochet hooks for my birthday 😂😂
same omg
Easily the best crotchet video I've ever seen. So clear, so well explained. Can't wait to start this is truly brilliant ☺️
Thank you so much, i'm so glad that it has helped you :)
Wow. I have tried so many guides and tutorials in the past and none was as clear and helpful as this one. I finally managed to complete a few rows! I’ve been knitting for decades, but until this video crochet has always eluded me, and I always felt stupid for not being able to follow tutorials. But after watching this one (granted I might have had to put it on half speed and watched it several times) I think I finally grasped the concept! I know it’ll take a lot of time and practice to get as comfortable as I am with knitting, especially when it comes to tension, but it’s still a huge milestone for me! Thank you! 💜
You are very welcome :)
You explained this so in depth and simple at the same time, 10/10 teaching skills, I have watched a few other channels but your videos are very easy to follow
Well done for not giving up and remember that crochet is practice and patience so the more you do the easier it will get :)
Thank you very much, I have a hard time learning to knit and I realized that I have a crochet hook as well so this tutorial you made is very helping! Now I'll just crochet then knit when I am ready to learn it 😂💕
You're very welcome 😀
I’ve done it, after many attempts and lots of crying, my square has been completed
Well done that is brilliant :)
After working for about 2 hours and numerous attempts, I’m ending the day with five rows finished! I can’t wait to continue my work tomorrow and practice more crochet! I’ve always wanted to learn and I am so excited I’m finally doing it!!!
Well done for not giving up, keep practicing and it will get easier :)
@@bellacococrochet Thanks! I’ve finished the square and crocheted a bee and am working on a snake!! This video helped me understand crochet soo much! Amazing job!
After 4mins I had to take a break, this is too much for my brain and hands to process and I haven't even bought my hooks and yarn yet but I will climb this mountain.
How far have you come with it? (Asking as I've only started today and feeling overwhelmed)
This was really helpful thank goodness for u
I'm glad it helped :)
I really wish I could add pictures!! I tried this but instead of a square it started to become a circle 😂 so I ended up making a beanie!!
be proud it isnt easy learning to crochet but it is very satisfying. Good work
This video is extremely helpful😊 she explains every single thing you need to know about single stitching ❤
I'm glad it was helpful :)
I just started crocheting and I found this so helpful! You're a great teacher :) ps. love the nail varnish
Thanks so much 😊
Gurl I don’t get it 😅
Hi Bella Coco I honestly love your videos they thought me how to knit thank you for your learning activities 🖐️👍
You're very welcome :)
i was looking at another lady's tutorial, i couldnt understand a thing she was doing, i came alone the part one, and this episode and i have managed to crochet a scarf, thank you so much for giving me a boost into my ongoing career.
You are very welcome :)
thank you so much for your videos! your tutorials are amazing
You're very welcome :)
Hey the video said bella my name is bella
I LOVE THIS! THIS IS SO HELPFUL
I'm glad it has helped you and remember that crochet is practice and patience so the more you do the easier it will become :)
Today was my first crochet! And I really recommend this video, when I had trouble I would take a small break and get back to it and that helped. It’s really frustrating and annoying but really fun once you get to know it!
Well done and remember that crochet is practice and patience so keep trying and it will get easier :)
It would be considered immature if I threw my hook and yarn across the room right?😭
It's called rage😔
Pick up a different hobby, or keep trying and don't consider giving up
