CSD (Centered Single Decrease)

In this video, I show you how to work a Centered Single Decrease. This is a stitch that decreases your work from 3 stitches to 2 stitches. You will begin by slipping the first two stitches knitwise and knitting them together through the back loops. Next, you will insert your left-hand needle through the second slipped stitch,  bring the yarn to the back of your work, and knit the first two stitches on your left-hand needle together.  This will bring the stitch count to 2. This decrease creates a triangular shape in your knitting, as opposed to a right or left-leaning decrease.

This special stitch is used in my Chai Latte Beanie design. 

I hope you enjoy this video and find it helpful. Thanks so much for watching!
