You Can Crochet with Bella Coco Review: Learn from YouTube's Favourite Crochet Teacher
If you've ever watched a Bella Coco Crochet tutorial on YouTube — and with millions of subscribers, you quite possibly have — you'll know exactly why Sarah-Jayne Fragola's teaching style is so beloved. Her instructions are clear, warm, and genuinely accessible. You Can Crochet with Bella Coco brings that same quality to print, creating a book that feels like having one of YouTube's best crochet teachers right beside you.
The Bella Coco Approach
Sarah-Jayne's signature style is encouragement paired with clarity. She doesn't just tell you how to do something — she explains why, which is enormously helpful for building genuine understanding rather than just following instructions by rote. This book carries that approach throughout: techniques are introduced with context, common pitfalls are flagged before you hit them, and the tone throughout is warm and motivating without being patronising.
The photography is beautiful and the book design is lovely — it's the kind of craft book you want to leave out on the coffee table, not just store on a shelf. The projects are well-chosen to appeal to Bella Coco's audience: modern, wearable, and achievable for the skill level they're aimed at.
Projects Included
The projects range from simple beginner makes through to more ambitious pieces, all clearly organised by skill level. There's a good mix of accessories, home décor, and wearables — something for everyone. Each project includes a full materials list and the pattern instructions are clear and well-formatted. If you're already a Bella Coco fan on YouTube, the projects will feel like a natural extension of the content you know and love.
