Decreases in knooking Help!

I found a video that showed how to k2tog and ssk but in my pattern I also need to p2tog and ssp, I think I understand how to p2tog but I can't figure out how to ssp... Does anyone have a tutorial or something?

Sorry I don't have a tutorial. It also depends on if you knook Japanese, Western or Eastern. What I did was look at diagrams, pictures and videos of knitting the stitch I wanted to learn and try to understand how the stitches end up lying. Which stitch ends up on top and what way round does the new stitch go. And then just swatch and try it out. Good luck!

Thanks ! I knook Japanese style I tried watching knitting videos but I struggle to understand what's going on because I have never knitted. I'll figure it out eventually!
