“INVISIBLE DECREASE SLIP STITCH” – FREE TUTORIAL
There are several ways to make decreases in single crochet. Here I show you the ones I use: invisible on both sides and without leaving holes.
There are three methods, depending on how you work the stitch: through both loops, through the front loop, or through the back loop.
Below, you’ll see each technique step by step, and at the end, there’s a summary video showing all three in action.
