SSK - or Left Leaning Decrease in Knitting with Rosee Woodland
Knitting • Educational, G, 01-Oct-2017
Rosee guides you through how to create this left leaning edge to your project and she suggests that you work one stitch in from the edge to do this, as this produces a firmer and neater edge for you to work from later.
This is a companion stitch to the K2 Tog – which produces a right leaning decrease.
