In the first set of parentheses you have to make a stitch by the method M1and then k2A right after the closed parentheses you have the word Twice. That means to do the instructions in the parentheses again same thing for the second set of parentheses
Even with working the parenthesis the given number of times I see only 23 stitches.
What is the name/number of your pattern? Have you checked again you have the correct instruction for your size? And have you looked online to see if there are errata for the pattern in case this has an error?
Thanks for your help I will contact Texyarns regarding their pattern Penn 839.

I hope you hear back from them.
Perhaps this is the pattern
It might be possible for someone here to help work out what the row should/could be if you give a little more information. Maybe which section of the pattern it is and what comes just before it. Don’t post large sections of the pattern but it’s ok to post a row or two for help.
…but hopefully the designer will get back to you quickly.
Let us know how you get on.
Welcome to the forum!
You might check the next row or in the following rows to see if they require 23 or 26sts. Sometimes that helps. It may be that extra increases were omitted or that the stitch number given really should be 23.
