    Like someone else said, it's used in the Knit Picks Hue Shift Afghan pattern. It's also used in the Chevron Baby Blanket pattern by Espace Tricot. In the baby blanket pattern, they just call it a mitered decrease, but it's the same process you show here. Confused me when I first started the pattern, but once you do a few rows the shaping begins to show and it works out :)

    I first came across this decrease in the Notes written by a Ravelry member for one of her projects, the Soft + Cushy Hat pattern from Purl Soho. That pattern calls for using K3tog repeatedly as one of the decreases in the crown section of the hat. The Raveler had had trouble making the K3tog stitch, so she offered "Slip1, Slip1, Knit1, Pass Slipped Stitches Over" as a substitute for K3tog. I immediately made note of that because I too have trouble with working K3tog. Time passed and now I see it's also called the CDD. I call it a life saver.

    It's the term used in the Knitpicks pattern for a Hue Shift blanket. Personally I add a stitch and do k2tog and ssk on both sides of the center I find this one can be fiddle to do with dk and smaller yarns.

    BRAVO...!!! I agree with every single comment down here... You have saved me soooooo much time...!!! I have been looking for this kind of info for months now... Almost gave it up...!!! NOW, would it work in garter stitch...? Multi-colored garter stitch...? I am trying to work the ear flaps for a Peruvian chullo (hat) but over there they knit from the wrong side and Portuguese style so they go too fast for me no matter how much I reduce the speed of the several videos around the subject... I will go now for months trying to practice what you just have shown and translate it to garter... A steeper one working with ten colors... Thank you so very much anyway... I think I am closer to achieving my goal...

    Hello. Thank you for making this tutorial. I’ve tried finding a tutorial for undoing a center decrease, and can’t find one. My husband is a knitter and showed me a few ways to remove this stitch and made a quick video I can refer to when I need a reminder, but would you consider making a tutorial on how to remove a center decrease? I bet others could use the help like I did. Thanks again.

    This is also called mitered vertical decrease. I was so confused when I saw this in a pattern and did not know how it was done. I also saw another write in the pattern as sk2p right down in the middle of her wheel chart which is my biggest challenge to learning to follow a chart. It's also the decreases that confuse me, whether I am supposed to slip 2 before a left leaning symbol for an ssk or am I supposed to slip the stitches after the symbol then knit that stitch, ya know what I mean?

  • @UkuleleLauren
    @UkuleleLauren 3 года назад

    Would there be a way to do this but have the central row on the inside? Perhaps purl instead of knit? I like the way the sides of the decrease look for the top of the hat, but I don’t like the bulky row sticking up. Is there a different decrease that’s similarly clean for hats? Thanks!

  • @lanadavis9535
    @lanadavis9535 4 года назад

    • @verypinkknits
      @verypinkknits  4 года назад

      This stitch isn't really "tinkable", because of the way it's constructed. You really have to pull the needle out and pick up the three live stitches.

    • @christineguth8804
      @christineguth8804 4 года назад

      VeryPink Knits thanks for your reply. Makes me feel better in a way. I sure found I wasn’t able to tink it and, getting the 3 live stitches back on the needles proved beyond my skill level with the very fine yarn I was using.

  • @Naturekat33333
    @Naturekat33333 3 года назад

    a pattern for me says to "yarn over" before i do that, but do i "purl wise "-slip the two-?
    after Ive done that it calls to" knit 1" and then" yarn over" and then "knit 3".. but how does that work if the yarn is in the purpling position and not knit side for me to knit the 3 hahah, im confused Im assuming im reading this wrong
    Rnd 3: *K3, YO, S2KP2, YO; rep from *
    to end.

    • @onlyyuknow1
      @onlyyuknow1 2 года назад

      For working your "round 3" you will knit 3 stitches, YO, then work the CDD as Staci demonstrated in this video: pass the next 2 stitches together knitwise onto your right needle, knit the next stitch, then pass both of the slipped stitches over the stitch you just knit, then YO and repeat starting again with knit 3 etc.
      I'm confused about "how does that work if the yarn is in the purling position" part. Simply place your yarn behind the needles in knit position. Should you have a purl stitch *after* a YO you end up with a complete wrap of yarn around your right needle. Working a YO after a purl stitch the yarn will simply lie over your right needle. I hope this helps 😉

    • @sandrastreifel6452
      @sandrastreifel6452 4 года назад

      wt30001: You slip the stitch before the centre st, and the centre stitch, as if to knit, then knit the next one, and PSSO. This will show the centre st, and mitre your square, if you do this every right side row. I like to purl the centre st every wrong side row, to give a decorative line up the middle. You need an odd number of stitches, in your square (I use 31).
