That's a beautiful diamond stitch and it's good to practice when you want to make a blanket or a decoration for the holidays. Thank you Ms. Bella for the lesson. May God bless you.
I am an advanced crochter, but always learning something new :)I just wanted to say that I thouroughly enjoy your videos, and thank you for being so percise,and thourough. I also love the fact that you take the one second and explain the difference in stitch name for U.S. and U.K.. Makes it so much easier for beginers and less frustrating & intimidating. Not many instructors on youtube do that. God bless and happy hooking!
Thank you , your instructions are so easy to follow , I was teaching my grand daughter the basics but she is left handed so I showed her your chanel and she is really learning now ,
Sweetie, I think I've looked at half a dozen variations of this stitch this morning, and yours was the first one that made sense to me (particularly doing the long stitch as 2-together, rather than as two separate stitches). Thanks a bunch, and keep up the good work!
Beautiful. My 7 year old daughter and I are new to crotchet and have been enjoying your videos very much. This one has been a challenge, but very rewarding. Thank you. :)
I am using the US terminology and whenever you say treble or double crochet I catch myself doing exactly those. I quickly have to remind myself "ooof, no! She's doing the UK terms." Then I have to frog it and redo the stitch :P. Good way to keep my concentration. But learning how to do this stitch on top of converting stitches in my head is giving my brain a work out. Thank you Sarah :) for the clear and precise video. Your hands are lovely steady, and slow moving :)
Throughly enjoyed this tutorial...very easy to follow. I always have difficulty working out which stitch is which but you explained it in a way I can understand...(humpty from Liverpool here)...Thanks again for this tutorial, look forward to the next one.
It's a very nice pattern, thank you for showing it. I will definitely use it in my future projects! I simply love all of your tutorials, they are fun and easy to follow. I actually started using crotchet due to your videos, I didn't like it that much earlier. Thank you for your amazing job!
we call the 3 a single crochet stitch in the US Thank you for the lesson That is a very pretty stitch and looks fun to work at Will try it with some pretty yarn color
I'm really going to have to work on this one ...Wow. You've explained it very well so, thank you for the pattern. But I 'm still a beginner. so I have a little way to go.
Thank you for the video. Exactly what I was looking for. Vey clear and simple to follow. I'm doing set of blankets for twins and did the waffle stitch for one and am staring this diamond stitch or he other.
Thank you so much. This was an easy to follow tutorial. Have you ever used diamond stitch in a hat? Should I do something differently to work in the round?
Hello! I absolutely love this pattern! I had no problem following you! I can't wait to get started on it! Thank you for sharing! Love all your tutorials! Have a great day! 😊....Diana
This is one of your older videos I understand. But until I tried watching and listening to you I understood why this video has gotten so many Thumbs down... Hopeful Honey walked my through and got this pattern down pat 👍
Thank you, I’m glad you like it 😊 This one is a bit tricky to work increases and decreases on - you would need to increase by working two stitches into one as usual, and decrease by working two together, but would then need to work out where to place your post stitches to match the rest of the pattern.
Hello, thank you for another beautiful pattern. I love your tutorials they are very well done. This is going on my have to make list. I'm currently working on the basket pattern from one of your videos 😊 thanks again Maria from Cambridge Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
I want to add this stitch in rows between sets of crocodile stitch but due to the plus 1 at the end I can’t get any matching chain numbers. Do I need to count the plus 1 in my bad line of stitches or can I just add it each time I switch from crocodile to diamond?
I think the easiest way would be to include the extra stitch from the beginning. This way the diamond waffle rows will work out fine, and you can just crochet a regular stitch into the extra stitch at the end when you are doing your rows of crocodile. This would be much easier than adding a stitch each time. 🙂
Hello, I'm a new subscriber. I love these little Christmas trees! Do you have a video on turning them into squares ? I would love to make this into a blanket! Tia!
Always love your tutorials!!! I want to crochet more whenever I watch your tutorials, but I just moved to a place that has no winter... Can you do some tutorials for doily using thinner yarns?
Hi Sarah-Jayne! (Using US terms)A little confused... I've watched this video a few times and I can't figure out why at the beginning of row 5 you single crochet in the first two stitches and then in row 7 you only single crochet in the first stitch. Is it a mistake? Should row 7 be two single crochet stitches or should row 5 be just one single crochet stitch? Or are they meant to be different? If so how do you know when to do one stitch vs two? Sorry if this was confusing...
Quick question... Do you think this pattern would work with a chunky type of yarn - like for making a baby blanket? I am looking for a new pattern to try, to make a baby blanket for my 1st great-nephew. He is supposed to be born in June, so I have some time to spend on learning a new pattern.
tisha1728 I reckon it would look stunning in all different types of fibres and weights of yarn. Probably just not a super incredibly chunky or fluffy yarn, as you might loose the definition of the stitches, but definitely a bit chunkier than this dk yarn would be fine (Stylecraft Special Chunky is an option in the same brand as the yarn used in the video). Hope that helps!!
Usually I have a easy time with your tutorials. For some reason this one was difficult. I watched it through several times, twice crocheting along and twice just watching you stitch. I must be missing something...
This pattern is written in UK terms so I don't use Single Crochet, you can find the written pattern here which maybe of help to you - blog.bellacococrochet.com/diamond-waffle-stitch/ :)
I am loving this pattern, but I'm having a hard time with my ends not looking the same.. not sure why but my right side of my project, my diamond is looking squished.. ? I did multiples of 4 I'm not sure why tho
Idk why and what, but something is wrong... idk.. i’ve tried for few times and it just doesnt work for me at the end. I mean, you say that, for example, i should be left with 1-2-3 stitches, and i get a different number of stitches left 😓
I love your tutorials but this one threw me for a loop. On the third row, you don’t do a double in the first stitch but in the next set of the same stitches, you do. I kept trying to figure out what I was doing wrong and I watched the video about seven times. I finally figured out that it might be a mistake in your tutorial. Am I just not following it correctly or is there a mistake in your tutorial?
There is no mistake in the tutorial as far as I am aware, but it is definitely a more advanced pattern. I do have written instructions on my blog which you can find here: bellacococrochet.com/diamond-waffle-stitch/ Hope this helps! 😊

Putting this on my to-do list right after my tulip blanket ❤

Looks like an excellent pattern for an evening Clutch purse. Thinking of using heavy duty Stiff yarn black or champayne.
Throughly enjoyed this tutorial...very easy to follow. I always have difficulty working out which stitch is which but you explained it in a way I can understand...(humpty from Liverpool here)...Thanks again for this tutorial, look forward to the next one.

This video is great! Thank you for all of the clear instructions!! Im making a blanket and it's turning out beautifully💕
You're very welcome :)
I'm really going to have to work on this one ...Wow. You've explained it very well so, thank you for the pattern. But I 'm still a beginner. so I have a little way to go.
Thank you Bella for the practical tutorial.
Thank you for the video. Exactly what I was looking for. Vey clear and simple to follow. I'm doing set of blankets for twins and did the waffle stitch for one and am staring this diamond stitch or he other.
Sounds lovely! x
Awesome pattern but far more advanced than I am prepared for at this time! I will revisit later down the road.
Hi Stacey, just remember that crochet is practice and patience why don't you give it a go and see how you get on? :)
Thank you so much. This was an easy to follow tutorial. Have you ever used diamond stitch in a hat? Should I do something differently to work in the round?

Wow this is going to be easy. Thank you for the tutorial. And congratulation 👶🏻
Excellent tutorial. So easy to follow. :)
Glad it was helpful :)
I love the nail polish!
This is going to take a while for me to get this one. 😂 I love this and I definitely want to learn it. Thanks so much for the tutorial! ✌🏻 🥰 🧶
You’re welcome 😊
Thankyou for this video ... very simple and interesting !
You're very welcome :)
Det er nogle virkelig flotte ting du laver 👏
Super stich thans Bella coco greeting babske from belguim 🤗
this pattern is so pretty!!! how would you make inc/dec on this stitch?
Thank you, I’m glad you like it 😊 This one is a bit tricky to work increases and decreases on - you would need to increase by working two stitches into one as usual, and decrease by working two together, but would then need to work out where to place your post stitches to match the rest of the pattern.
I didn't have a spare stitch at the end of row 3. Am I meant to have multiple of 4 + 1? I thought the +1 was lost in the initial turning chain.
I'd like to know which yarn is best for this project due to I can observe that the one you' have used is shimmery.
I want to make this diamond stitch for making a round shape bag. Any guidance for that? Will be really thankful!
If you worked this as a flat piece you could then seam it up the side to make a tube, which can be attached to a flat circle at the bottom 😊
Hello, thank you for another beautiful pattern. I love your tutorials they are very well done. This is going on my have to make list. I'm currently working on the basket pattern from one of your videos 😊 thanks again

I don't see the complete stitch at the beginning. That would help immensely. Thanks.
Great tutorial thanks a bunch for being so clear!
Hello, I'm a new subscriber. I love these little Christmas trees! Do you have a video on turning them into squares ? I would love to make this into a blanket! Tia!
Hi Christin I don't have a tutorial for turning the trees into squares :)
Please, I need your help. Tell me where do you do the three single crochets you need to show where you do the three single crochets please
I absolutely love your tutorials! I heard about you from Melanie Hamm's TH-cam channel. I am definitely loving your channel! 💕
Thanks so much! And a BIG welcome to you! I shall look forward to making lots of projects together x

Thanks, I will have to look for that.
Great tutorial. Random question: What do you do with all the samples that you make for all the tutorials that you do?
I have a box full of them! lol. I can't bare to throw them alway. I see it as a little memory box lol x
I bet its a big box. My husband tells me to stitch them all together. I just laugh.
Carla Smith
Carla Smith plase talme what is a name of the yarn? soft acrilic?
Ευα Ευα it is Stylecraft Special dk in the colour Sage, and yes it is a very soft, machine washable and affordable, 100% premium acrylic yarn :)
love it . please tell me you sell the hook you are using in your shop xx
Yes I do :)
Do you have a tutorial on how to do this with two colors?
Usually I have a easy time with your tutorials. For some reason this one was difficult. I watched it through several times, twice crocheting along and twice just watching you stitch. I must be missing something...
I watched the video a few more times. I got the hang of the stitch in the end.
i have been to your site but cant work out how to print the pattern ?
Do you skip one stitch before you start the three single crochets?
This pattern is written in UK terms so I don't use Single Crochet, you can find the written pattern here which maybe of help to you - blog.bellacococrochet.com/diamond-waffle-stitch/ :)
Amei esse ponto! Obrigada
Thank You!
You're very welcome :)
Qué lindo, me encantó!!!
cecilia elena toledo dreves ?
In raw 6 I end up with extra 2 stiches .. it should be 20 stich but I tried twice for raw 6 and ended up with 22 stiches what is the problem
Is there a written pattern for the Diamond Waffle stitch?
thank u for the video it is realy usefull
I am loving this pattern, but I'm having a hard time with my ends not looking the same.. not sure why but my right side of my project, my diamond is looking squished.. ? I did multiples of 4 I'm not sure why tho
Hi mate I am having the same problem
GRACIAS!!! 🇵🇷 THANKS 🙏
You're very welcome :) Eres muy bienvenido
What if I want the diamond to be bigger. I want to a sweater for a male
thank you so much😍
Is it normal mine is curving?
Idk why and what, but something is wrong... idk.. i’ve tried for few times and it just doesnt work for me at the end. I mean, you say that, for example, i should be left with 1-2-3 stitches, and i get a different number of stitches left 😓
I can't get it, I will continue to try until I learn.
Finally a tutorial where the math works out right! lol
I love your tutorials but this one threw me for a loop. On the third row, you don’t do a double in the first stitch
but in the next set of the same stitches, you do. I kept trying to figure out what I was doing wrong and I watched the video about seven times. I finally figured out that it might be a mistake in your tutorial. Am I just not following it correctly or is there a mistake in your tutorial?
There is no mistake in the tutorial as far as I am aware, but it is definitely a more advanced pattern. I do have written instructions on my blog which you can find here: bellacococrochet.com/diamond-waffle-stitch/ Hope this helps! 😊
But why do you not do a double on the first stitch on the first diamond row but on the third diamond row, you do a double in the first stitch?
cám ơn rất nhiều
This stitch would be lovely as fingerless gloves hey xxx
mine keep turning out more square than diamond
looks amazing but you are missing "a" in diamond - might make it hard for people to search for this on here
Selene Mason oh yes 🙈 thank you! I shall change that once I get on my laptop xx
Selene Mason I managed to do it on my phone! Well spotted lovely 😘
Bella Coco love the normal waffle stitch so this will be added to my ever growing to-do list. Thanks for all the lovely tutorials BTW
Selene Mason
les vidéos me sont pas en français merci
Brigitte Carion ah bonjour
La vidéos n'es pas en français le me sais pas suivre merci d'avance
Brigitte Carion wiwi
This is as a lovely stich but I am afraid you go through it too fast especially at the end if the first diamond row.
video is good but need some written ty
This is a very complex stitch. Not recommended to use with bulky yarn.
This is really hard
P
