How to do a decrease stitch ✌🏼 there’s so many different methods of decreasing but this is how I like to do it 😊 #crochet #crochettutorial #crochetaddict #crochetlesson #crochetstitch #crochethelp #crochetlove

Welcome to another #JustAtipTuesday - Today I’m showing you how to eliminate gaps and make your decreases look seamless using the invisible decrease technique. In a standard decrease, where you crochet two stitches together you would: insert hook into first stitch, draw up a loop, then insert hook into second stitch before finishing your decrease. This technique is great when working in rows or with mix of taller stitches. However, when it comes to amigurumi, the standard decrease becomes quite noticeable. Not only that but it also leaves larger gaps allowing the stuffing to show. To avoid this and make your decreases blend with the rest of the stitches, use the invisible decrease method: - Insert hook into front loop of the first stitch, and into front loop of the second stitch (3 loops on hook) yarn over, pull through two loops, yarn over and pull through remaining two loops. #theknottyboss #crochetsecrets

Happy Just A Tip Tuesday - today we’re talking about clean side edges! There are many different ways to achieve a clean edge working in rows. When crocheting with taller stitches like HDC or DC a Stacked Single Crochet is typically my go-to. It completely eliminates the need for a turning chain, allowing your edges to look nice and straight. Here I’m showing how to stack two SC stitches because I’m working with HDC. With DC or taller stitches you can stack 3 or more SC. Don’t forget, you can find this and other helpful crochet tips in my book Crochet Secrets from The Knotty Boss, available in most major book retailers.

✨ Master the basics of shaping in crochet ✨ Whether you want your project to grow bigger (increase) or shrink neatly (decrease)—these two stitches are the secret! 🧶💡 Once you learn inc and dec, you can make amigurumi, garments, and creative crochet patterns with perfect shaping. 💛 Are you Team ➕Increase or Team ➖Decrease? 😉 — @Thread_Tales22 Description⬇️ 🧶 Crochet Tutorial: How to Increase Stitches by @Thread_Tales22 👉 Increase (inc) means making two stitches in the same stitch. This helps your crochet piece expand (used for circles, shaping toys, etc.). Steps (Single Crochet Increase): 1. Insert hook into the stitch. 2. Yarn over, pull up a loop (2 loops on hook). 3. Yarn over, pull through both loops → 1 sc made. 4. Insert hook into the same stitch again. 5. Repeat the steps → now you have 2 sc in one stitch. 🧶 Crochet Tutorial: How to Decrease Stitches by @Thread_Tales22 👉 Decrease (dec / sc2tog) means turning two stitches into one. This helps your crochet piece shrink / taper (used for shaping toys, dolls, and garments). Steps (Single Crochet Decrease): 1. Insert hook into the next stitch, yarn over, pull up a loop (2 loops on hook). 2. Insert hook into the next stitch again, yarn over, pull up a loop (3 loops on hook). 3. Yarn over, pull through all 3 loops. ✅ That’s a Decrease! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #Thread_Tales22 #CrochetBasics #CrochetTips #CrochetIncrease #CrochetDecrease #CrochetForBeginners #LearnCrochet #AmigurumiBasics #FiberArt #Thread_Tales22 #CrochetBasics #CrochetIncrease #CrochetDecrease #LearnCrochet #CrochetForBeginners #CrochetTips #AmigurumiBasics #CrochetCommunity #FiberArtFun #CrochetLife #fyp

Single crochet decrease ⬇️ Recognise the two adjoining sc stitches where you want to make a sc dec. we are calling them sc 1 and sc 2 1. Insert your hook in sc 1, pull up a loop, you have two loops on your hook. Don’t complete your sc as usual. 2. Now, insert your hook into the very next stitch i.e. sc 2, pull up a loop, you now have three loops on your hook. 3. Yarn over, pull through all 3 loops. Your sc dec is ready US terms. This technique is used to reduce/decrease the number of single crochet (sc ) stitches in a row/round. We have basically made one sc in place of two. There are a number of methods to make a sc dec. Today I have shared a basic and beginner friendly method. 🧶 Follow @crochet.chronicles_ #singlecrochet #crochettutorial #crochetforbeginners #crochetbeginner #crochetstitch single crochet decrease tutorial, what is sc decrease, crochet tutorial, crochet basics, crochet for beginners, crochet techniques, crochet beginner tutorial, sc dec tutorial, crochet basics, crochet guide, crochet 101

Welcome to another #JustATipTuesday - Today we’re talking invisible sc decrease, but not just any, in the back loops only! If you ever tried working an invisible decrease into back loops then you know how awkward it can be. The angle of the back loops makes it difficult to insert your hook into both stitches and virtually impossible to draw that hook through. In fact, most times I’d just default to a standard decrease and hope it wouldn’t be that visible…. it always was 😢 That was until I learned this simple trick that allows you to work a BLO invisible decrease, with ease! Instead of inserting your hook into 1st then 2nd stitch of the decrease, just reverse the order (see instructions below) It may sound a bit awkward but once you get the hang of it, it makes working a BLO inv-dec so much better! INSTRUCTIONS: Skip the 1st stitch and insert your hook into the back loop of the 2nd stitch in your decrease. Turn your work sideways (as shown) and insert the hook into back loop of the 1st stitch (turning your work sideways will make it easier to see the 1st stitch) then finish as you would a standard single crochet. If you’ve tried this technique before, let me know what you think of it, and if not you should give it a go! #theknottyboss #crochetsecrets #tiptuesday #crochet #tutorial
