How to Knit an SSK Decrease

SSK stands for slip, slip, knit. It is a left-leaning decrease that reduces the number of stitches by one.

  1. Slip the first stitch knitwise from the left-hand needle to the right-hand needle.
  2. Slip the next stitch knitwise in the same way.
  3. Insert the left-hand needle into the front of both slipped stitches.
  4. Knit the two stitches together through the back loops.
  5. Slide both stitches off the left-hand needle.

You have now completed an SSK decrease. The decrease leans to the left and is often used together with a right-leaning decrease to create a balanced shape in the knitting.

Tip: Keep the stitches relaxed as you work. This helps create an even and neat decrease.
