Knitting abbreviation - Skp

Knitting abbreviation Skp stands for slip 1 knitwise, knit 1, pass slip stitch over knit stitch. This is a single left-leaning decrease. It's very tidy and easy to make.

Insert the right-hand needle as if to knit and slip it off the left-hand needle onto the right-hand needle. Then, knit the next stitch as normal. Next, insert the left-hand needle into the slipped stitch on the right-hand needle, bring it over the knit stitch, and off the right-hand needle.
