Shawl help

Hello! I am currently working on this shawl. https://www.yarnspirations.com/red-heart-samanthas-shawl/RHK0126-023088M.html

I am on row 29 and am having difficulty. It wants you to repeat the set in the parentheses 3 times then finish the rest of the row. The problem is I don’t have enough stitches to finish the 3rd time and then the rest after the row. Something is not adding up correctly.

Any help would be appreciated!

Hello
Do you have the correct number of stitches before working this row? Should be 31

31 sts.
Row 29: K2, [yo, k3, yo, k1, sk2p, k1] 3 times, yo, k3, yo,
k2 – 33 sts

The row uses up 31 and increases by 2.

It may help to place markers or yarn loops to check where you are running short of stitches.
Place marker after 2 sts then count 8 place marker, 8 place marker, 8 place marker, and there should be 5 left at the end of the row

As you work the row you should still have 8 stitches between the markers as you dec by 2 and inc by 2 between the markers. The inc of 2 near the end of the row are the additional 2 stitch increases.

Yes I have the correct number of stitches (31) from the previous row.

Found the mistake! Back on track now! Thank you @Creations for your help.
