Hi there,
I was wondering if someone could help me decipher this pattern. I am stuck on a section of the pattern. Currently knitting the back section and I have gotten to shaping the armhole section. The section I do not understand is as follows: “working all raglan armhole decreases as set by last row Dec 2 sts at each end of 6th, and 1 foll 6th rows, then 11 foll 8th rows. Which will leave me with 43 sts after the all decreases. I am knitting a size small. This section of the instructions do not make sense to me. Can someone assist me. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, isabel
Welcome to KH!
I’ve actually made this sweater myself.
Decrease 2sts at each end of row 6 and then row 12. For the 11 following 8th rows, decrease on rows 20,28,36,44,52.60,68,76,84,92 and 100.

Hi.
I have similar issue and would be very happy if you help me to understand decreasing at raglan shaping.
I am making size L and I don’t know how to continue after co 3 sts on each side of the row and then decreasing 2 sts in row 1. Can you write the continuing of decreasing, please?
Thank you.
Welcome to the forum!
After the cast off of 3sts at each end of the row the decrease directions are:
Next row (RS, Row 1): Sl 1, K3, sl 1, K2tog, psso, K to last 7 sts, K3tog,
K4. 121sts.
You’ll have 4sts each side then the decreases. At the beginning of row, slip one, k3 then a double decrease (slip 1, k2tog, psso) and at the end of row (k3tog). You’re actually decreasing 4sts in this first row (Row 1)
Continue this pattern of decreases on rows 5, 11,17,23,29,35,41,47,53,59,65,71,77,83,89,95,101,107 and 113 (45sts remain).
See if that helps and if not, come back anytime with more questions
Thank you so much for your kind answer.
I will continue knitting as you have written.
Kind regards.
