You do it just like an american single crochet decrease:

Insert hook into first stitch, pull through a loop, insert hook into second stitch, pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through all 3 loops on hook.

Cheers ladies. I knew it would be something like that cause I've done a pattern where it taught me to tr2tog. But it just looked rather small when I tried. Looks good now though XD pictures of the hat I've used it on coming up soon Smiley
