//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 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.

I LOVE your tutorials! I love that you show how to join at the end of each round, every round. That is the tricky part for me, so it is very helpful to see it done repeatedly. You repeat yourself just the right amount!
Thank you :)
Wow this is amazing.. thumbs up who will be trying this..
I am right now trying this for a new cardigan
How can I carry on and make a blanket from this pattern
I'm doing it right now!
You found your calling! Thank you for amazing tutorials. Who knew granny squares could be so fun?!
You are very welcome :)
Love watching bella coco my first project was a granny square and love everything she does because she does step by step which I love. Thank you bella coco
You're very welcome :)
Definitely trying this! I've seen different crochet tutors on Facebook & admittedly, seen some great stuff.
But you are second to none Sarah. And I am so glad I bought your book xx

Making this, within the week! Just black and white, for a themed baby blanket! Thank you for the tutorial!
You are very welcome :)
Going back to basics with a good ole' granny square or circle can renew & re-inspire even a seasoned crocheter. Especially when using such pretty colors like you have here that give a really fresh and fun look. Your videos are always so clear and well done. :)
Thank you so much :)
Thank you so much for this tutorial Sarah! So beautiful.
I learn how to crochet with you and you inspired me to start my own tiny-baby youtube channel. ;) Thank you so much.
Hope you and your lovely family are safe and well.
You're very welcome and that is really great. It is so lovely to know that I have helped other people to branch out and start their own channel :)
@@bellacococrochet Yes! You are such an inspiration. thank you so much :)
I am new to crocheting and I could make this gorgeous little piece by following your instructions. I've tried a couple of other channels before I found yours and it was a game-changer. Thank you so much for doing what you are doing.
You are very welcome and well done :)
Just wanted to say this is a fantastic tutorial, I've already made 2 and plan on making a blanket with it! Thank you!

Thank you for this tutorial, I somehow ended up with 5 sides which actually turned out pretty so making a blanket with that! Thank you again
You are very welcome :)
I'm a man and find crocheting to be very relaxing! It's also good for hand/eye coordination. So glad that I found your channel!! 😎
Thank you! 😊
It's beautiful, you make it look so easy, and as I'm left handed I don't feel cackhanded, like I normally do thank you xx
You’re very welcome 😊

You're very welcome 😊
Next on the blankie hooks is THIS SOOOO AWESOME
Thank you :)
I found it. Thank you so much
You're welcome :)
Thanks 👍👍👍🌷🌟
You are welcome 😊
It's beautiful and I already have subscribed to your channel 😍😍😍😊😊😊
Thank you :)
Love this 😍 I really want to make the circle one round bigger, how do I then make the border work as there will be more stitches? Thank you in advance
For a bigger circle, you will make your corner stitches on the border in the same way, but increase the number of DCs along the side in round 5 and the number of TRs in round 6 😊
Excellent
Thank you 😀
Love this pattern Sarah-Jayne, thank you so much for sharing it. I'm already picturing it with a rainbow colour scheme and thinking how fab it would look as a massive afghan. I might just have to give it a go. x
You're very welcome :)
I love your videos. But I’m loving your crochet hooks. Where did you get these from?
Thank you, the hook is from the crochet society subscription boxes :)
Great pattern!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Please take care and stay safe and healthy 💕💗
You're very welcome :)
Love the colors and it was easy to follow along. Thank you. ☺️
You're very welcome :)
I love the colour schemes you're always working with ✨🐣🌈☁️
Can I do a carpet with it 🤗🌈🧶🏵️
a carpet is such a good idea
Just a question: at 12.27 you say "one treble into that next stitch", don't you mean "into the chain space again"?
Yes, I should have said to work into the chain space - sorry for any confusion caused 😊
@@bellacococrochet Thank you!
Thank you for this video. have recently used a similar method to make some circles into squares for my new Lockdown blanket. Loving the colours you have used. Xx
You're very welcome :)
Such a pretty pattern and lovely color selection. Thank you as always for making beginners like myself actually look talented 😊
Thank you and you're very welcome :)
Hi
Love your stuff!
Question - why do I seem to have the stitch showing of the circle when doing the border? The first time l did it my circle looked square’ish.
Did 2 rounds and my yellow circle had spikes when I crocheted the square in grey.
I am left handed if that makes a difference!
Ty so much for another great tutorial... I love ❤️ your work..everything is so beautiful 😍
You are very welcome :)
This actually looks easy enough for this beginner and I have some lovely pastel 8 ply I can use.
Give it a go and let me know how you get on :)
@@bellacococrochet would you recommend me taking amounts off the 200gm ball first rather than pulling it out of the larger one? I have some jumbo paddlepop sticks aka tongue depressors I could use?
Love this 🥰
Do I join to make a blanket as if solid granny square?
Xxx
Thank you, there are several ways to join these squares it really depends on what type of look you are going for. If you search 'bella coco how to join granny squares' all the different options will come up so you can search through them to see which one would suit you the best. Let me now which one you choose to use :)
Just came here to say I love this pattern! By row 6 I couldn’t get it right, I kept recounting… it turns out when you say to do two double crochets into the corner, chain two and do two double crochets in the NEXT stitch, I think you meant into the corner again. At least that’s what worked for me. Just wanted to throw that out there in case anyone else was struggling while just listening along
I'm glad you like it 😊 Thank you for pointing this out; sometimes small errors like this do creep through, but yes, you are right, you should be working two US doubles (or UK trebles) into the same corner space, not the next stitch. Apologies for any confusion.
@@bellacococrochet oooh you’re totally fine!!! I just wanted to post a comment so others knew ☺️ thank you again for all your awesome videos
Hi, I love this pattern so much, I'm using it to make my next blanket - thanks for the really clear instructions. However, I do have a question: how do you start rounds 2, 3 and 4 if you're not changing colour? Looking forward to your reply!
Thank you, I’m glad you like it! 😊 If you’re not changing colour you can end the round by joining with a slip stitch, and then chain three (which counts as a stitch) and then continue the next round.
@@bellacococrochet Thanks so much!
Hi, Thank you for the tutorial, it’s amazing!!! I have a question, how could I make half circle?
You're welcome, I'm glad you like it 😊 You could make a half circle by working half of the stitches into a magic circle, and then turning your work to add the next row.
I have yet to make any type of granny square blanket but love this pattern and want to try it. Do you have a tutorial on how to join them?
I have several tutorials on how to join granny squares, so you can have a look through them to see which one suits you best :)
I love the circle!! I am using the pattern from your solid pink circle. I am struggling though to square it off the bigger it gets! How do u square it off on a piece bigger than the sample you have done???? Thanks!!!
Thank you, I'm glad you like it 😊 For a bigger circle you can work the corners the same, but increase the number of shorter stitches along the edges.
for some reason on round 6 i have 14 trebles instead of 12 but hopefully thats okay, thank you for this pattern its so beautiful!
In round 6 you should be working into 14 stitches along each side; you can see the written instructions on my blog here which might help: blog.bellacococrochet.com/circle-of-hope-free-granny-square-pattern/ 😊
your tutorials are fantastic and so easy to follow. Thank you for posting so many easy tutorials to follow and grow my skill in crocheting.😄👍
You are very welcome :)
Hi, please help, I love this circle granny square, and used a number 5 hook with charity double knit pullskein, but am finding it tends to get a little wavy and won't lie flat like yours does. Must I rather use a number 4 hook? What am I doing wrong?
For double knit yarn I would recommend using a 4mm hook which I think is number 6 US hook, or letter G. So I would try going up a hook size as your stitches may be a little squished 😊
So pretty! i need to try this out 😍 Im a crochet newbie - just made a few thing before and Im wondering if you or someone else can answer I question about yarn? I read that this is acrylic yarn - do the blanket itch or is it soft and cozy? Do this yarn make the blanket fuzzy/frizzy after washing and Using it alot ? GUYS : What is your best yarn tips for me ? i want to make a soft and cozy blanket that isnt fuzzy/frizzy and doesnt Itch? Im sorry for the questions but I Have psoriasis so Im a bit sensitive 🙈 and also sorry for my bad english Im from sweden 🇸🇪. Hope someone Will read this and help me choose the right kind of yarn ❤️🙏 and Thank you so much for sharing this tutourial 🥰🥰🥰
You're welcome 😊 If you use a premium acrylic yarn like the one in the video you should find that it's nice and soft and doesn't itch at all. Acrylic yarn is very hard wearing so it can withstand being washed in the washing machine and tumble dried, and it's a good option for people with allergies to animal fibres. Wool for example can be quite coarse and itchy. Another option to look at would be cotton, which will give you very good stitch definition as the yarn is more defined than acrylic, but it's also much more expensive. Hope this helps! 😊
@@bellacococrochet wow Thank you so much! Maybe a stupid question but How do I know its premium acrylic yarn ? Im from sweden so I Dont know if its called the same but Maybe it is. 😅🙈
How many cm wide is the granny square? Want to make it into a crochet top for my sister!
Please make a tutorial on crochet purse with zipper
Really beautiful 🥰🥰🥰 How do you join these squares together? I love join as you go for Granny squares but I'm not sure how I'd do that here
Beecy you should be able to find a link for joining them together or just look for joining them on you tube
Here is the link on how to join squares:- ua-cam.com/video/6INNQBX4cpo/v-deo.html hope this helps :)
@@bellacococrochet thanks so much for replying yes that tutorial is very helpful. Thank you 💐
@@wendyhayne930 thank you 👍💖
@@beecy3893 happy to be able to help, and you got an answer from sarah
Now to join all these wonderful circle of hope squares ?
Dumb question if I wanted to make a smaller square . Like 3 color rings do I use the same number of stitches . I just divide by 4 ?
If you only wanted to make three colour rings just follow the pattern as normal but skip round four 😊 When you make your border around the outside you will have to make less double crochets are there won't be as many stitches to work into. The written instructions are on my blog here for reference: bellacococrochet.com/circle-of-hope-free-granny-square-pattern/
Hi SJ,
I’m new to crochet and would like to purchase some hooks like the marble handled one your using as others I’ve used are too narrow at the handle
Thanks I advance and love your videos
Thank you so much, sorry but the hooks are exclusive to the crochet society subscription boxes and cannot be purchased separately :)
Bella Coco No problem , thank you I’ve managed to get some that I’m hoping will help with the arthritis in my hand , on another note because I’m new to crochet do you have a tutorial for a peacock style design would love this as I’m no good at reading patterns but find following your explanations much easier
Thanks
Bridgette x
I am excited to make this pattern. UA-cam will not download pattern unless I signup for a monthly service. I am not tech savvy - is there another way to download the pattern? Could you also tell me what the measurements of each square should be if I follow your pattern directly? I’m trying to figure out how much yarn to purchase. Thank you soo much for your beautiful patterns and making it so easy to follow your patterns!!
You are very welcome. The circle of hope blanket pattern can be purchased on my blog at bellacococrochet.com for a one off payment of £3, you do not need to sigh up for a monthly service. Here is the link bellacococrochet.com/shop/circle-of-hope/ or you can find the free pattern on my blog at bellacococrochet.com It's really difficult to give out sizes as this really depends on the type of yarn you are using, your hook size and your own personal tension, my square size was approx 5 inches x 5 inches and i used a 4mm hook. If you pop over to my blog you will find all the information that you need. Good luck with your project :)
Hi thank you for your great tutorial I’m wondering how I can make the circle bigger and then turn into a square? I can’t figure it out
You’re welcome 😊 You can follow my tutorial for a flat circle here: ua-cam.com/video/QFHexyNR1dY/v-deo.html and continue increasing the size. Remember you’ll need to adjust the number of stitches on your final rounds to change it into a square if you do this.
If I was too add another colour in the round how would I go about doing the square border? Would you add a couple more singke stitches in the middle of each side?
Yes, I would simply work more double crochet stitches (US single crochet) in the centre of each side when you come to straighten it off 😊
Thank you for the pattern. I am now superproud of my circle of hope as I am a beginner. I am just learning to read patterns and was expecting another HTC in your round 5 repeat to match the video. Am I just reading it wrong Round 5: Ch 3, tr in same st. Ch 1, 2 tr in next st. Htr, dc in next 8 sts. (2tr in same st, ch 1, 2 tr in next st. Htr, dc in next 8 sts) twice more. Htr in next st and join with a ss. Do not tie off.
Should there be a HTC at the beginning of the bracket?? P.S. cant wait to see your blanket later
Hi Gaynor this is correct and thank you for bringing this to my attention, this has now been amended :)
Hope your well and keeping safe. This looks interesting
We're all doing fine thank you :)
Love your videos. How much No of chains in each round.please explain. That don't understand.
Thank you, I'm glad you like them 😊 You can find the written instructions for this over on my blog here: bellacococrochet.com/circle-of-hope-free-granny-square-pattern/ which includes the stitch count for each round.
How did you do the edge round the whole blanket? X
All the details can be found on my blog bellacococrochet.com :)
How do I fasten off and weave in the colour changes??
I have a tutorial on how to sew in your ends, here is the link :- ua-cam.com/video/6qXEcQj_0L0/v-deo.html I hope this helps :)
Can anyone tell me how many crochet stitches together in in one wall in roll 5. That will be X stitches times 4 walls plz Thank you
Thank you for this great tutorial ❣️I was waiting for it ☀️now .. how to join as you go 🙏
You're very welcome :)
I sooooo want your hook. Can I buy it somewhere, or is it a one off specially designed one for you 💘
Also waiting on yarn to come back in stock for these. 2 are out. I'm on tenterhooks waiting. Did ya get what I did there 😏 😉 thank you Sarah jane @bellacococrochet
The hook is out of one of the crochet society subscription boxes and cannot be purchased separately :)
😭😭 beautiful, such a pity thanks sarah
Hi can Circle of hope granny square can be used for the tote bag as in video
Yes you can, but you may need to use a different joining method. As long as your squares are arranged as shown in my blog post here: bellacococrochet.com/crochet-on-the-high-street-and-why-you-shouldnt-buy-it/ you can join them using any method 😊
@@bellacococrochet thankyou 😘
I want to increase the circle 3 times so there are 7 rounds of circle.. could you tell me the process of the border please? How many HTC and DC along the edge?
For the border you would make your corner stitches in the same way as shown in the tutorial, and just increase the number of double crochets along the side as in round 5 and the number of trebles as in round 6. 😊
I love this but I'm struggling with the colour transition. I seem to have a bit of the new colour showing or vice versa and a gap. So it looks messy 😕 Is there another way to transition?
Have you tried gently pulling on the ends of the old colour and new colour to tighten them? This should sort out any gap and will usually make the change less noticeable. If you prefer, you can tie off the old colour and then attach your new colour by making a standing stitch, or by joining it and then chaining 😊
Could you use this method to make the mandala into a square
Yes you can use this method for all kinds of projects 😊
@@bellacococrochet yes thankyou sooo much
Please can you tell me can I go from the circle to square granny clusters?
As the circle is formed with solid rows of stitches there aren’t any gaps to work the clusters into (as there would be with puff stitches, for example), but you could try working clusters around the outside by working three trebles into one stitch and then skipping two stitches 😊
Thank you I will try that 👍
This is probably a stupid question but is there a tutorial on how to stitch together. Is it just a matter of slip stitching them together? What is recommended?
Hi Lotty here is my tutorial for the method I used:- bellacococrochet.com/zigzag-slip-stitch-join/ I hope this helps :)
Bella Coco yes thank you so much
Where do I find “the description box below”?
If you look underneath the video you will see where it says 'show more' click on this and the description will drop down :)
Can i ask why it is 8 double crochets? Meaning why is this the number? is it the number of stitches divided by 6 - asking because i did an extra round and may need more double crochets but unsure on the number. Thanks
If you've worked an extra round I would take the total number of stitches that you have and take away sixteen (this is how many stitches you will need to form the four corners). The number that you have remaining can be divided by four, and this will make up the total number of double crochet stitches which will form the side of each square. Hope this helps 😊
I can’t find th printable pattern. Love all you projects
I do have a low cost PDF pattern, here is the link:- bellacococrochet.com/shop/circle-of-hope/ or the free pattern can be found on my blog at bellacococrochet.com :)
@@bellacococrochet I ordered the blanket and bunny patterns. Are you sending this in the mail or you can email it?. They are pretty and I would like to make both of them. Thanks Sarah
@@bellacococrochet I ordered two patterns 4 days ago and paid for it through PayPal. I would like to know how to download the blanket and the bunny. Thank you Sarah
Need Tutorial how to join them
CAN YOU USE A BIGGER HOOK ???? I DON'T DO MAGIC CIRCLES CAN YOU JUST CHAIN & SLIP STITCH ?????
Yes you can use a bigger hook if you wish; I would recommend using the size that’s stated on the ball band of your yarn. If you prefer you can also make a chain four and slip stitch it into a circle 🥰
How many square do you make
It depends on the project you are making - if you measure a completed granny square you can work out how many you will need to fit the width and height you are aiming for 😊
I have heard that the magic circle gets off work
Number of stitches on the
OUTER Circle
I really love this, but you go to fast for me. How do I slow it down? I pause like crazy. When I get it right it will be well worth it.
You can slow down the tutorial by clicking on the settings tab in the bottom left then click on playback speed :)
What's the finished size of this square please?
Mine was approx 5 inches x 5 inches :)
@@bellacococrochet thanks😘
This is not a granny square granny squares have bigger holls
Their are all different types of granny squares, some have holes some don't :)
