DECREASE TIP-1 (for hat):
All decreases are made from the right side!
Decrease as follows: Work 1 edge stitch in garter stitch, slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1, pass the slipped stitch over (= 1 stitch decreased), work garter stitch until there are 3 stitches left, knit 2 stitches together (= 1 stitch decreased), 1 edge stitch in garter stitch.

DECREASE TIP-2 (for jacket):

Decrease as follows after the 1 edge stitch and A.2 (for the right front piece): Slip 1 stitch as if to knit, knit 1, pass the slipped stitch over (= 1 stitch decreased).
Decrease as follows before the 1 edge stitch and A.2 (for the left front piece): Knit 2 together (= 1 stitch decreased).

DECREASE TIP-3 (for the trousers):
Work until there are 3 stitches left before the marker, then knit 2 stitches together (= 1 stitch decreased), work 2 stitches (the marker sits between these 2 stitches) and then knit 2 stitches twisted together (= 1 stitch decreased).
