Hi,

It means to decrease 1 st at each end every other rows 27 times. So on the next right side row, you work dec on both ends and then work even on the next wrong side row. Then repeat these 2 rows 26 more times with a total of 27 times. (you should decrease 54 sts total)


Thanks for the question and visit,

Ratcha
