Knitting Help - Comparing Decreases

Sometimes patterns, especially older patterns, will tell you to decrease without specifying which decrease to use. Or you may be working a pattern where you think a different decrease will work better than the one the pattern calls for. In this video, I compare three popular decreases side-by-side so you can see the differences.

Slow demonstrations of the three decreases:
Knit Two Together (k2tog):    • Knitting Help - k2tog, or knit two together  
Slip, Slip, Knit (SSK):    • Knitting Help - ssk, or slip-slip-knit  
Pass Slipped Stitch Over (PSSO):    • Knitting Help - Pass Slipped Stitch Over (...  

The bulky yarn I used for demonstration is Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Bulky in Yonder.

The needles I'm using are Knitter's Pride Nova Platinas, from an interchangeable set:

The nail polish I'm wearing is by Julep, color "Amanda".
