My DS never crawled really (well, not until after he could walk). He started bum shuffling at 12 months and then about 4 months later started walking. It sounds like your DD might actually end up crawling (if she still keeps trying), but I wouldn't worry too much about the way she's moving now.
lol how cute! I saw a video of someone's bub the other day doing a similar thing, someone commented she looked like a 3 legged spider
Chances are she will probably walk before she crawls if she really hates it that much, but so long as she does eventually learn to crawl (it's important for left/right side of the brain communication) there's no problem and it doesn't matter what order she does it.
Oh that's adorable A friend of mine's daughter does this, she still just can't get the hang of crawling. She's 13 months old and has now changed it to one foot kind of out in front, she uses that to pull her bum along lol, it's so cute! Now that she can do that she doesn't even bother trying to crawl, she gets along quick enough like this. I don't think it'll affect her walking, she walks while you hold her hands etc.
Your daughter just has her own unique way of getting around, good on her for figuring it out
