After learning how to increase, you will need to know how to decrease. Crochet decrease is creating one unique stitch from two previous stitches. You can find two techniques : the classic decrease and the invisible decrease crochet. Personally, I always use the Invisible technique because it’s not more complicated and the result is cleaner. If you want to make amigurumis, I suggest you to make invisible decreases.
The difference between those two techniques is due to the loops of the stitches you use to create to reduction. For a classic decrease, both loops ( front and back ) of each stitch are used. Conversely, only the front loops are used during the so-called ” Invisible ” technique. It is for this reason that it is way less visible in a work.

Step 1 : Visualize the front loops of the two stitches you want to decrease
Step 2 : Insert your hook in both of them
Step 3 : You now have the two front loops on your hook
Step 4 : Make a yarn over
Step 5 : Pass the yarn over thread through the 2 loops. Then, you have 2 loops left on your hook
Step 6 : Make a second yarn over and pass it through the 2 loops. You have one loop left on your hook and your invisible decrease is done
