CROCHET: How to crochet the Waffle stitch | Bella Coco
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июн 2024
- A tutorial for how to crochet the waffle stitch which makes a lovely dish cloth or baby blanket. I am working in UK terms with reference to US terms.
*Please note an error: you should be making your first stitch into the third chain from the hook, not the second. This will give you 26 stitches at the end*
**Please note an error: at 3.25 I say 'work a double crochet into the second chain from the hook' I should have actually said work a "treble crochet" **

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.
This blog post might be useful: bit.ly/1UIobie
-How much yarn do I need?
Unfortunately, I will not 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?

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
Awesome! I am using her granny triangle method and expanding it with grey Red white. To create a triangle shawl for myself. Yay!! 😁

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 ❤️
You are very welcome and I'm sure she would be so pleased that you have started to crochet again :)
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!
+CarJohn Arr, I'm so glad you like it! :) x

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❣️😂
Bella Coco is an extraordinary teacher. Thank you very much
You are very welcome :)
You weren't the first video I came to to learn this stitch - but you are the LAST. You are awesome. Thanks for teaching me something new!
You're very welcome :)
I am taking up the hook again for my next grand baby. So happy that I found your tutorials again.
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!!!!
You are very welcome and remember that crochet is practice and patience so keep going and it will all fall into place. Good luck :)
Everyone comments on how lovely the stich is. No one says anything about your accent! I absolutely love how you say, 'Otherwise you will stroogle' 😍
yawn-eiver
Why would anyone say anything about her accent? You just did.
Are you from USA?
I just wanted to say....you have excellent tutorials....not too fast...not to precocious....they are very helpful...thank you sooooo much. :)
thanks so much! Really pleased you like them x

Really neat stitch. I am a guy who took up crocheting for a bit of relaxation; this will be fun to try. Thanks! :)
Justin Webb crochets not just for the girls :) x
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.

+Justin Webb good for you Justin.. should be more guys doing it.. :)
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.
You are very welcome and I'm glad I've been of help :)
Your waffle stitch is my "go-to" video because you are so clear, and your instructions for the edges really make sense. 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☺👌🏻👏🏻
You're very welcome 😊
@@bellacococrochet ☺
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
Awesome tutorial! I have made almost a million of these dishcloths! I wish all instructions were as clear as yours! Thankyou
thanks so much... I've made a scarf for husband and he loves it... unusual pattern so has been admired. thanks for all you do with your tutorials😚
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!
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.
Am making this for my first ever crochet wash cloth and love the stitch and love the tutorial You made it seem so easy for me Thank you
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!
Thank you for all the clear details that you giving iam a beginner and i managed to knit a wonderful baby blanket !!!
I’m ok uu
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!
Ahh how lovely, I hope that he loves it as much as you loved yours :)
Thank you for the detail of the stitches. I watched another video on waffle and was confused so came here. Excellent teaching!! 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.
Justin, it is nice to see a guy doing this... And I agree, it is very relaxing and Bella does a great job with her tutuiol .
I used this pattern to make a book cover for my son. He loved it. It came out really nice. The pattern was lovely and adds a lot of texture.
Thanks for this Bella! I struggled with the ends but watching several times I finally figured it out. Great work!
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!!
+Sandra Roels Im so glad you like them! Thanks for your message :) xx
Great tutorial. I am a beginner, and I was able to follow all the directions very easily. Thank you.
I started crotcheting earlier this year. Your tutorial is the best i have found. Thank you so much for the great instructions!
Great tutorial 👌🏼 very well explained as usual .
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
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.
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!!
You are very welcome :)
I haven't crocheted in more than 20 years, and just yesterday came back to it - but I only ever learned a SC and DC stitch. This is SO easy and fun, and makes such a cool contrast in the texture! Thank you for one of the best tutorial's I've ever seen. My yarn is a bit too thick (it's a 5) for this type of stitch, but I'm going to make a baby blanket with it and with Baby Yarn it's going to be so pretty! Thank you. Just fantastic.
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.
+miss carol that will be snuggly :) x
Made a blanket with this stitch. It turned out beautifully, and it was fun to do. Thanks for the great videos!
Mary Lu Seidel okay
How many stitches did you have in the foundation one?
Beautiful pattern. This is great for a soap saver pouch. Thank you for explaining size hooks because sometimes projects can turn out totally different than the intended pattern. Comparing size hooks in videos are very helpful.
+Crochet Love glad you liked it x
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
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
+Zola Bold You're welcome!
Zola Bold nice
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're very welcome :)
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
Denise Thompson - Your tutorials are always so easy to follow. It doesn’t matter which tutorial I follow I always come back to you so thank you.
You are welcome and thank you for your support :)
The waffle stitch tutorial was fine well and had me confidence I can learn and complete a project. Thank you.
making a baby blanket for a friend who is due soon and I'm using this stitch and it looks amazing so far I love it :)
+Heaven Jones This stitch will make an amazing blanket! I'm sure she will love it x
i want to make a baby blanket too, how many stitches did you start off with roughly?
I'm just learning to crochet and i love this stitch!! Did a practice one now going out to buy more yarn to make a blanket!!
Very clear instructions, love your channel! Can't wait to try more projects!
Thank you, very clear explanation !!!!!
the best i have ever seen
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.
Very nice stitch and the instructions were great! Thank you! Made the cutest washcloth, but you're right, it would make a great baby blanket!
This was so helpful, fun, and easy to follow. Thank you!
I have never done the waffle stitch this way thank you it was the most comfortable tutorial and I love doing it this way appreciate you
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.

I’ve always loved this stitch! So much depth!!!
I find it sooo hard to follow a pattern, as I can never remember how to work all the stitches from memory, but seeing your video really inspired me to make a throw in this stitch. As I have been left a stack of yarn from my late mother, I'm now trying to use it up and till now, I've just been making stripes in the double/treble stitch. Your video was super easy to follow, thank you.
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.
2learn4ever Glad you managed to do it x
+Bella Coco I was confused like +2learn4ever but the above post helped me get on the right path Thank you. I love the look of this stitch.
2learn4ever 4v 8e
OMG! I was confused too! I frogged it cuz the video said 26 stitches, but I have 27. 😭😭😭
@@jenrowevalderamos687 Goodness! That was 5 years ago! Well, Happy New Year, 2021! May it be a lot better for us all.
Thanks for this tutorial - I'm a novice crocheter and this was really easy to follow.
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.
You are very welcome :)
thanks for this Bella I am going to make these into small coasters and maybe pot stands for the dining table and also some in red , green and golds for the Christmas period , Love the waffle stitch xx
i love this stitch it is so nice looking
Love this stitch it's waffly nice :-)
Nice word play. I love it.
That's punny
I feel like I could use it in a lot of projects - it's waffly versatile
I really enjoyed your tutorial. I was looking for a different kind of stitch for a blanket. I want to make a King size blanket. You explained yourself very well and I can't wait to try this. Thank you.! :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I was able to work up my first waffle stitch with it 💖
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!! :)
begginer here! loving ur tutorial, thank you! 😊😙
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 🙂
how much yarn did it take you and what size hook did you use @Carrie Stillings.
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 for this. I've made a cover for my tablet using this stitch. Because it's nice and chunky when finished, it adds extra protection x
+Sarah S Oh yeah! great idea x
+Sarah S Had the exact same idea :)
+Sarah S It would also act as extra insulation when used in a blanket.
+Sarah S You're welcome!
7 and 8 yea
I like the waffle stitch. I'm going to try it.
just wanted to say thank you for a really easy to follow tutorial love this stitch
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
This is so good. Clear and easy to follow. Thanks.
+ChooseCarefully You're welcome!

Going to start this latter this week. Really like this stitch. Love your videos. So very helpful and clear understanding. Thank you!
Love this!! haven't figured out how to add a photo, never use you tube for anything other than viewing tutorials so excuse my naivety! it turned out great and this was a super easy tutorial!! I did mine in powder blue for a baby blanket. thanks!
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 :)

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
I used this sample piece to demonstrate the block edge which looked quite nice :)

Agnes Robertson
Where can I get a written pattern? Thank you for doing this tutorials.
Good day Ms. Bella, I just want to thank you for the video on teaching this stitch, it was very interesting and keep up the good work and God bless you.
This helps me understand the waffle stitch so much better - thank you for posting🙂
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
❤
Hi Bella coco i would like to say thank you for sharing your talent I made it Beautiful thank you
+Graham Armamento Thank you x
just fab. thank you for showing it in simple steps. Will use this for making a blanket
I love your videos. I just completed my first crotchet project (just using the simple crotchet stitch) but am excited to learn more stitches and how I can make future projects better.
Okay, after the video.......here goes, starting my waffle stitch blanket. Wish me luck😟😟
good luck! Hope it's going well!
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.
Finaly! A tutorial that I can understand and keep up with! The best..instructions and timing for beginners excellent!!
Highly use this video and would recommend it to anyone. You are detailed in the way you teach and it is appreciated.
i am totally confused! at the begining of this tutorial you advise chain in multiples of 3 then add 4 you chain 24 then add 4 more giving you 28 then a just a wee bit later on you say you chain 24 and add a further 2 giving you 26. I am not sure which it is. I am new to crochet. Can you advise please?
Flora Arbuckle
Flora, remember when she started her first treble she skipped 2 stitches at 3.26 minutes into the video. So she started with 28 skipped 2 stitches at the very start of the treble pattern leaving 26 stitches.
Flora Arbuckle o
CHRISSY 😉
When starting you dc in second st from hook, then when you ch 1 and turn you do a dc in first dc before you start the three St pattern, then at the end you have a dc in the very last St after the pattern sts...those are your 4 extra sts.
I just finished the sunburst granny square! OMG u are amazingggg （*/∇＼*）can't wait to start on this!
extremely good teaching, but could you use lighter wool so we could see where you put the needle in the holes thank you
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial! Your instructions were very clear. I have loved the look of this stitch for a long time and am so excited I finally know how to stitch it! :)
I absolutely love this, now I'm gonna see if I can do a blanket before my little one is born.
i can do this and im only 10 years old but i do crochet club at school
i just made a ear warmer
same
Dude you have a crochet club at school?? Lucky.
I wish we had crochet club when I was in school! Lol
ching lang , this is so nice to hear. When I was your age I learned sitting in front of my grandma because I am left handed.
I need clarification, you said you chain in multiple of 3 and then you add 4 and then double crochet in the 2nd chain from the hook and every stitch across and then you should end with the original number of your chain plus 2 stitches, however that could only be possible if you started your double crochets in the 4th chain from the hook....I even paused your video and counted your double crochets and you did not end up with 26 you ended up with 28, you should correct your video.
+Heather Burleson I'm also having the same issue. I've tried this like 5 times on just a sample size project and I never end up with 2 more stitches than my multiple of three. If I follow the video I end up with my multiple of 3 plus FOUR additional stitches (including the little false stitch for my chain up). Something is off and I'm afraid to start a larger project because I want to be sure my waffle pattern lines up correctly.
+Heather Burleson MEEEEE TOOO!!!! I've done it at least 6 times and come up with more every single time. It's making me crazy. Finally gave up and chained an extra two instead
I end up with a total of 28 stitches. there are a couple of other ladies that replied that have the same thing, so I don't know if I should continue. I am going by your example.
Did any of you ladies ever get a clarification on this? It's so frustrating.. When I can't figure something out.
+H Johnson no haven't had any clarification so I went onto something else.
Wonderful video! I have made 2 scarves using this stitch & people love it. Thank you for teaching this stitch pattern!
Your a great teacher. I'm so happy I found you💃😊
