Hello,

Thank you for sending in your question.

"I know they are talking about the armholes but i don't understand this part of this. what do they mean [3sts] 0 times, [2 sts] 2 times, then [1 st]2 times."

This means you'll need to bind off at each armhole edge as follow;

Bind off 2 sts at armhole edge 2 times, and then bind off 1 st at armhole edge 2 times. For the first bind off of 3 sts is omitted since it's for 0 time.

I hope this helps. Thank for visiting.
Have a great day!

Ratcha
