This is a different way to work a basic decrease. It shows less than the typical decrease.
While it can pucker a touch, I recommend sticking to a “regular” decrease if you don’t want it to curve a bit in your project.
How to Work the Decrease
Step 1: Insert your hook in the Front Loop Only (FLO). Yarn over and pull through. 2 loops on hook. Don’t finish the stitch; instead – go to the next step.

About the Instructor: Jody Richards
Jody is the founder and lead editor of Knotions. She loves poring over stitch dictionaries and trying out new stitches. And while she likes all things crafting (well ok, except that one thing), yarn crafts are her true love (and she has the stash to prove it).
She’s a serial starter-of-projects and has a serious problem with finishing things without a deadline.
And don’t get her talking about hand-dyed yarns. You’ve been warned.
