 Hi there, welcome to Start Us Gold Crochet. This is Tasha. Today's tutorial is going to be on the Double Crochet 2 Together, which is a decrease. In Double Crochet, you're decreasing by one. And today I'm using Knit Picks, which is a great yarn to use. It's called Wool of the Andes Tweed. Thirst Heather is the color. It's a pretty green. This yarn is 80% Peruvian Highland Wool and 20% Donegal Tweed. And they recommend using an I to a K hook, so I'm going to go ahead and use In Between, which is a J hook, 6mm. So what you do is go ahead and do a chain. It doesn't really matter how many chains you do for the tutorial, just to practice this decrease. But the first step of doing a Double Crochet 2 Together is to work into the third chain from the hook. You yarn over once, insert your hook into the stitch or chain. Yarn over and pull up a loop. Then you yarn over and pull through 2. That's the first part. The second part is yarning over, inserting into the next stitch or chain. Yarning over, pulling up a loop. Yarn over, pull through 2. Now we're going to do the last and third step where you yarn over and complete the stitch by pulling through all the loops on your hook. So there you've created your decrease Double Crochet 2 Together. Or if the pattern calls for it, it would be a one double crochet decrease. So let's do it again. Yarn over, insert your hook into the next chain or stitch. Yarn over, pull up a loop. Yarn over and pull through 2. Yarn over, insert your hook into the next stitch or chain. Pull up a loop. Pull through 2. And then yarn over and pull through all 3 to complete it. One more time because 3 times the charms on learning something. Did you know that? 3 times. So here we've created 3 decreases. Double crochet 2 together. And we went from having 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 stitches down to 3 stitches. So you decreased by 1 with each double crochet 2 together. Alright, I hope you enjoyed this tutorial. If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments below. And I don't know if I mentioned but a link for this yarn will be down in the description down below. Happy crocheting!
