My grandma taught me how to crochet a simple continuous circle, and she wanted to teach me more, but I was not very receptive as a young child. Soon after this, she developed Alzheimer's and was unable to teach me. When lockdowns started, I was living in her house, without her, only with her memory. I remember coming to this channel at 1 or 2 in the morning to learn a new stitch and to try to spend some time with her. I've been quite busy the past couple months and haven't had much time to crochet, but I am so glad to have a afternoon today so I can take a deep breath and come back here, where things are a bit slower, and I can crochet a dishcloth rather than going out to buy a sponge. So thank you for this bit of peace and thanks for a connection to my grandma ❤️
Bella Coco has been a staple in my crochet journey over the years. The way she repeats yarn over pull through yarn over pull through 2 etc really helps because it becomes a mantra and allows me to continue with the video without having to look at what she’s doing cause I’m repeating yarn over pull through etc x
I do the exact same thing!! 😂 I am continuously mumbling yarn over, insert, yarn over pull through, year over pull through 2 etc... It's like chanting. 😅
Nabanita Mitra yeah exactly, like a mantra! If I take a long break from crocheting I still repeat it to myself! I’m currently crocheting a mini sofa for my cat, complete with blanket and mini pillows I’m so excited! X
I've been crocheting for over 30 years and can't believe I've finally found this delightful pattern! I've seen the waffle before, but couldn't find anyone who knew the pattern, nor could I come across a pattern book with it. Then I forgot about it, and Voila!! Here it is on your site! You have just made my day! My year! LOL!! Thank you so much for your videos! Well done!
I'm not sure which tutorial I started with, but I kept putting my blanket down to make others. Then when I did pick it back up again, I totally forgot how it was done, but here comes Bella Cocoa to the rescue 🛟☺️❣️ Thank you so very much ❣️ I've always enjoyed watching your videos! Hopefully I will finish MY blanket before someone else asks me to make them one❣️😂
I am JUST NOW starting to leave the "single stitch" crochet and wanting to learn others. I have to say this one looks REALLY AWESOME, however extremely complicated but you make it look so easy to do. I am going to be downloading this video to my phone so I can watch it over and over and over and over until I can get the hang of it. Thank you so much for this video. You are an EXCELLENT TEACHER!!!!
Ooooh giiiirl! You are the best crochet teacher on youtube. Thank you so much for your well detailed videos. They are much appreciated! Got it on the first try... not because I'm good at crocheting... but because you are a very patient teacher. God bless!
I had a crochet blanket in this stitch as a baby and I was obsessed with it, as a toddler I would carry it around with me all the time and have it every nap time. Now, thanks to your wonderful instructions, I’m making a baby blanket with this stitch for my soon to be nephew!
The thoroughness of this video is enough for me to subscribe without seeing any others! Its soo hard to find a video with good close ups good explanations and not having to rewind every ten seconds! Thank you!!
I made this waffle stitch and I made a pouch using this stitch.Your tutorials are best for beginners like me 😁.I'm glad that I found your channel.Thank you Bella Coco☺👌🏻👏🏻
Bella Coco Hello I've followed your directions to start out your 1st dc in the 2nd ch from the hook & I've done it over 3x & I keep ending up with 27 stitches. I also count my chains on my foundation ch 2x & it's always the right amount. Do I need to dc into the 3rd ch in order to get 26? Bc I would skipping 2 chains.
+Justin Webb MY BROTHER-IN-LAW TOOK IT UP WHEN HE WAS LAID OFF BECAUSE IT GAVE HIM SOMETHING TO DO FOR JUST THAT REASON. IT'S WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO KEEP YOU CENTERED.
Just started crocheting after about 40 years. Even then, just knew basic granny square. Love the simple to follow instructions you give. I now have 3 complete lapghans done with this stitch and just started number 4. I get a lot of compliments on these lovely blankets. Thank you.
OMG....Thank you soooo much for zooming in and going slowly!! I can't tell you how many videos don't zoom in or go slowly or even show you how to end the project for those of us that are learning...thank you thank you!
Your tutorials are always so easy to follow. You seem to always know just when we can carry on. Thank you! I have made the granny square blanket using five rows of black around each colored square. I used five colors that were vibrant and set off the black. I also finished your increase/decrease blanket with yarn I had around. So fun to be able to crochet without having to use a written pattern constantly!!
I don't care the video is old...i luv the way she step by step the projects. So a beginner like me can remember how to do certain stiches and...learn terms in another langue...2 tribles please..yarn over👏👏👏😍😍😍💪😛😀yarn color always works as well
Really clear instructions, the pace is perfect for me. Also very helpful to explain both UK and US terms to avoid confusion. One of the clearest crochet videos I've viewed. Thank you.
You are so easy to understand! and having the camera zoom in when explaining a particular part was a real nice help. thank you so much. Really looking forward to more of your lessons.
So glad I found your channel. Been wanting to learn the waffle stitch and basket weave stitch. Could never find someone I Could follow very well. Your explanations, the clarity of how to do this in an easy, timely manner is wonderful. Thanks so much, learned two new stitches today.
Thank you Bella Coco once again for teaching me yet another stich. When I get around to it I will post a short video on my pieces of work. Thank you very much and have a nice day. I like what you are ding. Your a big help to me and I know others as well so thank you. Keep on doing what you do. I appreciate it. GOD and JESUS CHRIST Bless you, your family and everyone else in existence. BFlowers
Great tutorial. Finished product is beautiful. I'm a beginner and this is so easy yet it looks so difficult! Thank you for sharing your talent with us freely.
I haven't crocheted for over 25 yrs, I'm retired now and thought I would like to get back into it again. I looked online at many sites and wasn't impressed until I found yours. It's amazing, in no time I was crocheting again like a pro! Your tutorials were so easy to follow. Can't wait to try more patterns. Thanks, Brenda
I️ thoroughly enjoy all of your videos! As someone who finds it difficult to follow and learn from many videos on RUclips, I️ find yours to be super helpful and I️ am so excited by what I️ have learned from you in such a short time. Thanks so much!
Hi I would just like to thank you for being such a patient teacher. I have recently taken up crochet as a hobby and needed to learn from scratch which you have successfully helped me to do.
I’m always discouraged to learn a new technique so I’ve stuck with the same one for years. This is the first time I have easily been able to learn a new technique. Such a great tutorial you’re awesome at explaining, thanks so much. I’m definitely going to check out more!
Bella, You are such a talented person and you are also a great teacher. Thanks to your tutorials (they are the best on the web in my opinion) I have been able to make sentimental and useful gifts for others. Keep up the great work!Melissa
Thank you! I’m fairly new at this crochet thing, and I think this might be my favorite stitch I’ve used so far! So pretty. I’ve made two dish cloths today. Thanks again. :)
you are awesome. Thank u for all these tutorials. I can crochet anything, I just can't read a pattern very well. so when I want to learn a new stitch I watch your tutorials. Thank u again.
Making a useful tutorial is not as easy as it might seem. This one is excellent - very clear and paced just right. I am primarily a knitter, and only crochet once in a while, using straightforward stitches. I am very pleased with how this stitch is turning out in a blanket. Thanks so much!
I am so glad to finally find this tutorial. My all time favorite waffle pattern. I am going to make few pillow covers for my boys' beds as a start, after I will make a blanket. Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you for creating this easy-to-understand video. It was step by step which was important to a novice like myself. I feel confident that I can begin creating using this new stitch. I look forward to future videos. This was the best crochet video ever!! Much gratitude.
Thank you so much for this video, I am loving the waffle stitch in a baby blanket. And to all the people complaining the pattern is repeating on 3 stitches, the plus 4 is the 2 stitches on the start of the piece you are crocheting and then at the end you have another 2 stitches. So it does work out with no problems.
I'm having a problem with that part. She chained 28 total. I did exactly as she did but then she counts up 26 stitches in foundation and I'm getting 27-28. I've gone on to rows 2 and 3 but then I'm not ending on the same count she does. Where am I messing up?
Love this video! I made 2 face cloths now with cotton yarn and am so pleased with them! Thanks so much for teaching me:) I think I will make my hubby a scarf for this winter.
Love your tutorial. The only thing I would recommend is adding a brief text version of what you did in the video which is really handy for looking at the pattern another way and for moving faster than the video.
Dear Bella Coco, I return over and over to your videos. They are a really useful body of work for reference to the new crocheter and the more experienced. Thank you for making a great contribution to You Tube and crocheters everywhere💐😊
I made a throw blanket for movie nights with my husband and it is very cozy and warm. Thank you SO much for your wonderful tutorials! I'm excited for the next one 🙂
I confess to being confused with the number of stitches as at one stage you said you had '26 stitches'. It was in fact 27 trebles plus the turn = 28 stitches. I managed to finish the pattern successfully at last!! Thank you for this lovely pattern.
Oh my god! You’re the only person I’ve seen that does a ch1 for the turning ch when doing a dc/tr crochet. Everyone else either does a ch2 or ch3. I hat how loopy and gapey it looks with the long turning ch.
Another fab posting, thanks for breaking down these patterns in your easy to follow tutorials. I struggle with understanding standard pattern notations, but I am really enjoying crochet from your lead.
I love the visuals. They are very clear as to where to put the crochet hook. I have crocheted before, but this really helped me finish the edges nicely.
Great easy tutorial,I am a beginner as far as crochet is concerned and your tutorials are always helpful. I have decided to use this for a baby blanket and wondered which stitch/stitches would you recommend for an edging
This was just a wonderful video! Thank you so very much for taking the time to teach us! We are going to have a lovely dishcloth hanging by the sink later today!! :)
i need to practice this one ...managed to do least 3 rows after just watching it ...but i cannot seem to get a straight edge ( edge that has the tail at start).. soo frustrated - but excellent tutorial :)
I tried my hand at this stitch and i was amazed at how quick I learned it and how earn and fun your tutorial was. I look forward to learning more and recommend you channel to my coworker. Thank you!!
I ENJOYED CROCHETING THE WAFFLE STITCH. MADE TWO BLANKETS FOR A LITTLE BOY USED LIGHT BLUE AND YELLOW AS HE LIKES Minons for xmas the other was in deep pink for a little girl also for xmas no stoping going to blankets for family ready for next xmas thanks for your step by step showing to do waffle stitch. Aliuson
I've been trying to get myself out of my comfort zone and learn new crochet stitch techniques. Your video was amazing! Thanks so much! I just started making a dish towel just to see how this works, and I love it so much I'll be not only making a bunch more dish towels for Christmas, I'm going to make a baby blanket for a friend of mine! Perfect instructions, and definitely will be checking out more of your videos. Thank you again!
chain in multiples of 3 then add 4. Then dc's starting from second chain from hook! This will leave us with 3 extea stitches from the original multiples of 3. But you say we will have 2 extra stitches from the starting multiples? I see in the comments many others confused re. this.
The reason there are 4 extra stitches: one for the chain skipped at the first turn, one for the waffle pattern first ridge (technically the pattern is a repeat of 3 plus one for the extra ridge that you begin with), and then the two extra stitches that frame the waffle pattern on each side.
Ugh, I counted my second row so many times and ended up removing a stitch so that I had multiples of 3 plus 2. Then find out at the end of the next row that I actually needed that stitch. I hate frogging. 😒
I am new to crochet and now I have the main stitch down wanted to learn a new one but I am getting the same issue as you described I do not have the additional 2 stitches to my original groups of 3 + 4 HELP………… I love this pattern and want to master it
I don't crochet too often but have always wanted to learn to crochet the Waffle Stitch. - It is my first tutorial and you have made it so easy and such a pleasure to follow . Thank you Bella
My husband found your videos after watching me struggle with a "teach yourself" book. You explained the stitches and patterns so well and made them easy to follow. I'm looking forward to watching all your videos and making new projects. I've subscribed to you channel and look forward to seeing more videos.
I started with this stitch because it look like fun and I had a lot of left over yarn. I am mixing the colors for a afghan and very happy with the out come. Your tutorial was so easy to understand the direction. Thank you, Holllie
Why do you only chain one at the end of each row instead of two? Most patterns tell you to chain one for single crochet and chain 2 for double crochet.
0h thank you for such detailed instructions. haven't crocheted since I was young & you have given me confidence to try again. My son's grandmother made him a sweater very simmilar pattern for his first birthday We just loved it. 22 years later its saved for his child and now I can make a blanket to match

Thank you, very clear explanation !!!!!
the best i have ever seen
I've been trying to get myself out of my comfort zone and learn new crochet stitch techniques. Your video was amazing! Thanks so much! I just started making a dish towel just to see how this works, and I love it so much I'll be not only making a bunch more dish towels for Christmas, I'm going to make a baby blanket for a friend of mine! Perfect instructions, and definitely will be checking out more of your videos. Thank you again!
+Dawn Beattie I'm so glad you like it! Thanks for watching xx
chain in multiples of 3 then add 4. Then dc's starting from second chain from hook! This will leave us with 3 extea stitches from the original multiples of 3. But you say we will have 2 extra stitches from the starting multiples? I see in the comments many others confused re. this.
Omg! I'm glad I'm not the only one that is totally confused by this. I have frogged mine 6 times. I hope she replies.
The reason there are 4 extra stitches: one for the chain skipped at the first turn, one for the waffle pattern first ridge (technically the pattern is a repeat of 3 plus one for the extra ridge that you begin with), and then the two extra stitches that frame the waffle pattern on each side.
Ugh, I counted my second row so many times and ended up removing a stitch so that I had multiples of 3 plus 2. Then find out at the end of the next row that I actually needed that stitch. I hate frogging. 😒
I am new to crochet and now I have the main stitch down wanted to learn a new one but I am getting the same issue as you described I do not have the additional 2 stitches to my original groups of 3 + 4 HELP………… I love this pattern and want to master it
❤
I don't crochet too often but have always wanted to learn to crochet the Waffle Stitch. - It is my first tutorial and you have made it so easy and such a pleasure to follow . Thank you Bella
You are very welcome :)
I have got to try this
Thank you I crochet a scarf for my mum every one comments what a lovely stitch it is .
exactly what i was looking for!
My husband found your videos after watching me struggle with a "teach yourself" book. You explained the stitches and patterns so well and made them easy to follow. I'm looking forward to watching all your videos and making new projects.
I've subscribed to you channel and look forward to seeing more videos.
Okay, after the video.......here goes, starting my waffle stitch blanket. Wish me luck😟😟
good luck! Hope it's going well!
I started with this stitch because it look like fun and I had a lot of left over yarn. I am mixing the colors for a afghan and very happy with the out come. Your tutorial was so easy to understand the direction. Thank you, Holllie
Why do you only chain one at the end of each row instead of two? Most patterns tell you to chain one for single crochet and chain 2 for double crochet.
0h thank you for such detailed instructions. haven't crocheted since I was young & you have given me confidence to try again.
My son's grandmother made him a sweater very simmilar pattern for his first birthday We just loved it. 22 years later its saved for his child and now I can make a blanket to match
