//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.
-What equipment do you use?
Camera: amzn.to/2jkNDl2
Tripod: amzn.to/2w4ReK8
Ring Light: amzn.to/2w4vrC7
-What do you do for a living?
I am a Full Time content creator for my Blog and TH-cam. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Any chance the pattern text could appear at the top of the screen as you talk through it? I find written patterns a bit of a mystery so seeing them develop as you crochet the row would be really helpful.

Thank you for this vid
You are very welcome :)
So, just finished a Christmas stocking. I have a large WIP but needed something portable. Fortunately I just found two balls of King Cole, (sprite) and have started making a scarf in this stitch. I was going to do it all in this pretty stitch, but, now I am contemplating just having five plus rows of waves at each end as I fear the holes in the pattern might just make it useless as a scarf.
Thank you for being so inspirational!
You are very welcome, let me know what you decide to do and don't forget to post a picture :)
Thank u so much your so easy to learn from you make it easy to understand
You're very welcome :)
That’s my Saturday planned ❤️ 🧶 🧣 thank you BC 👏🏻 your knowledge and skill set is phenomenal xxxx
You are very welcome :)
😂😂😂it was the dog….great tutorial. Thx
You’ve lost me? 🙈🤔
I thought so too!
@@bellacococrochet at 7:37 you hear it. 😂
I heard it 😂
Fine work 👍🇨🇭🧶
Thank you :)
I am just learning this arcade stitch and so far I am loving it… could you possibly show how to change colours with this pattern please?
It’s absolutely beautiful! I googled the origin of crochet and it said that crocheting is so old that the first needles were made from bones! I laughed so hard I thought I was gonna cry 😢!
It's such a lovely stitch isn't it. I didn't know that fact lol :)
The most interesting thing to me is no one seems to know exactly where or when the art crochet actually began. There are traces of it in ancient China and even from the Mayans. It was popularized in the early to mid 1800’s in England but from my research, no one really knows from where it came. I know the granny square was popularized in the late sixties and early seventies. Who sat down and said.. C4 insert in C1, 3DC. I’m learning the crochet language!
I love all ur videos even tho I am a new subscriber so I have not watched all of it
Thank you :)
Ur welcome
I just made a 55" x65" blanket in this pattern and it is gorgeous! I am worried that the top and bottom edges are so delicate and open and am considering putting a border on it. Any suggestions or videos on this? Thank you for teaching me to crochet!
You're welcome, I'm so happy to have helped you 😊 To add a border to the top you can finish on a row 3 or 5 (depending where in the pattern you want to end up on) and then work a row of double or half treble crochets (UK terms) along, which will make it a bit more sturdy.
I'm making this blanket! It's lovely! What is your suggestion on a border for this blanket?
Thank you, I’m glad you like it 😊 I think a plain border would work well to showcase the lovely arcade stitch; a round of treble crochet stitches (UK terms) finished off with crab stitch would look lovely. I have a crab stitch tutorial here: th-cam.com/video/K7XOkueIkNM/w-d-xo.html
Can you please do a tutorial on the griddle stitch?
👍🏻
Loved this... is this also similar to the wheatsheaf stitch?
Glad you liked it. Yes It is very similar, I believe there are a few stitch count differences between the two :)
Love it. In your link you used hook 5mm. I have yarn for 4mm so will need 4mm hook. Will that be OK?
You can use whatever hook size is required for you yarn. If you are using a lighter weight yarn, it just means your pattern will be a little smaller x
Any idea how you could decrease the row?
You can decrease at the edges by slip stitching across the arches, and then continuing in pattern for the rest of the row. Hope that makes sense! 😊
Hi Sarah Jane is it possible to use any of your pattern to make a Poncho the starting chain will be 90. If my head is actually working do I pick a stitch that has the set amount of repeats that add up to 90 please? Xxxx
It's not the total amount of chains that you want to look at as such, but the multiple that the stitch uses - so for 90 chains then a stitch that is worked over a multiple of 3 would work well, for example 😊
Thank you for my last question. I hadn’t thought it went on multiples of. I have just done the second row and my row looks like a pretty flower or if I try and get it to lay flat it goes spiral. Any ideas? I am now going to sew it into a flower xxx
Can you show us the Celtic cable stitch?!?
I’ve got this on my list! So it will be coming soon x
I don’t think no one ever does the same chains . Some does 5, 6 and 7 plus 1 or 2 .
Nice pattern but I always have trouble with the edges. ESP when the count changes from row to row. Ex. chain 1 and skip the 1st stitch!!!
If you pop over to my blog you'll find the written pattern: bellacococrochet.com/arcade-stitch/ The instructions detail whether the beginning chain counts as a stitch or not which should help you. Once you get the hang of the four row repeat you should be fine 😊
@@bellacococrochet I appreciate you 🤗
Is this DK wool? Ive looked for the make but Im still stuck. x
I used Yarn and Colours which is 100% Cotton 4ply and comes in some amazing colours - you can use this link :- bit.ly/YCMustHaves :)
Can you change colors with this pattern?
Yes absolutely! Id recommend changing on the 3dc & chain rows to make the most of the pattern. You'd change colour on the last draw through of the last stitch on the previous row x
Please make a vedio on making a plushie
So you skip three, then go into the fourth. I'm a total beginner & in the little project I'm trying to learn on I've not been doing something right. I'm now realizing I'm putting the hook into the third instead of skipping THEN going to next one. It makes sense now as I'm saying this, but I think in my noob frustration it just wasn't clicking. Whew.
yes that right, into the third chain rather than skipping 3 chains. Glad you worked it out x
Do I hear an Australian influence in your accent?
Did you spend anytime there or did one or both parents come from Australia?
No Kilo I have never been to Australia and both my parents are from the UK :)
@@bellacococrochet thanks for replying.
My wife loves your channel and she is crocheting a baby blanket for our first grandchild thats on the way in October.
The written pattern says to repeat rows 2-4, should read 2-5.
Hi Julie thank you for this, yes it should say repeat rows 2-5 this has now been amended :)
Somehow I made it all crooked 😂😂
don't understand these videos and their creators always using light color yarn against white background 🤥
