Dec 1 st at each end of next 5 [5: 5: 5: 7: 7: 7: 9] rows, then on foll
3 [4: 5: 6: 6: 7: 9: 9] alt rows, then on foll 4th row.
93 [95: 99: 103: 107: 111: 115: 119] sts.

Welcome to the forum!
It works out to 15 decrease rows with 2 sts decreased each row. Call the next row, row 1. Then you would dec on rows 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, then 9,11,13,15,17,19,21 and finally row 25.
