OK I am making a sweater and I am shapping the arms and I am not sure what this one part means.

Shape Armholes
Cast off 3(3:4:4) sts at beg of next two rows.
Dec one st at each end of the next and 1(2:2:3) foll alt rows. 49(51:55:57) sts.

I get the bind off each row part I have problems with the green bolded part. Does it mean dec at each end of every other row two more times for a total of three times? ( I am doing the second largest size)

yep you got it.. They want you to decrease at the end of the next row and then again 2 more times.. so for a total of 3 times.. you should have 55sts left..
