Crochet: sc3tog (single crochet 3 stitches together)

In crochet, sc3tog stands for “single crochet three stitches together.”

It’s a decrease stitch that combines three stitches into one, reducing your stitch count by two. You’ll often use sc3tog to shape curves more sharply — like the top of a hat, corners of amigurumi, or certain lace and motif patterns.
