Hi there,

On the next row (right side) dec 1 st at each end.
Then decrease 1 st at each end every other row (every right side rows) until you have 14 sts left. This should be exactly 22 rows.

Decreasing every other rows within 22 rows of work means you only decreases 11 rows. Because each row has 2 sts decrease, it then adds up to 22 sts. You started out with 36 sts and will decrease 22 sts. You should end up with 14 sts as the pattern states.

Thanks for the question and visit.
Have a great weekend!
