Knitting Help??

Splashed out on some expensive wool so determined to make this work and not abandon it!

The jumper is knitted in the round and I'm just getting to the armholes. The instructions are pasted below. I'm knitting the S size. Does the casting off only apply to the final two rows of this sequence for me, or should I be casting off on every second row?

2 rows colour 6 On the last row you cast off to armholes and you now have to knit back and forth if you knit in size XL/XXL. Cast of 2 stitches, 1 stitch before and 1 stitch after marker on each side.
2 rows colour 1 stitch colour 6 and 1 stitch colour 4. Next row army over curry and curry over army. On the last row you cast off to armholes and you now have to knit back and forth if you knit in size M/L. Cast of 2 stitches, 1 stitch before and 1 stitch after marker on each side.
2 rows colour 6 On the last row you cast off to armholes and you now have to knit back and forth if you knit in size XS/S. Cast of 2 stitches, 1 stitch before and 1 stitch after marker on each side.

Also, when I'm knitting "back and forth" is this between the arm hole markers?

Did you get any help? This is the most confusing pattern I've ever seen! Which designer? You can often message them

I think I cracked it by pure chance. it is huge - had to order even more very expensive wool and Lovecrafts have messed up my order twice!

Hoping it'll be worth it. Didn't think to message the designer who is Siv Kristin Olsen and there's even a hashtag @knitbysiv. Fall Sweater

That's good! Ime, etsy and Ravelry designers will take questions as they want their designs to be easy to follow and lots of people to knit them. Rowan not so much....
Looks gorgeous! Post a pic. Are you on Ravelry? I love to follow people

That looks fantastic and really cosy. I'm really envious of your knitting abilities!

Thank you! Made the second one a bit smaller but once I'd cracked the split for the neck and sleeves, it's a dead easy pattern. Second jumper was knitted in a week.
