Are you ready to elevate your crochet? The beautifully neat invisible decrease is the perfect way to neaten up your stitches and take your skills to the next level. It’s a gripe we’ve all had – increases and decreases are handy tools that add shaping to your work, but there’s no getting around it – they can be bulky and well…a bit ugly sometimes. So, this new stitch tutorial will show you how to banish the bulk and create even, neat decreases that are invisible! It’s like a crochet magic trick!
Unsure of the differences between UK and US terms? Need a refresher on how to do your stitches? In my ‘How to crochet: A handy reference guide’ EBook I help you with all of these terms and you can always have them to hand! You will also get exclusive access to free video instructions. Learn more about the eBook here.
