111221 = three ones, two twos, one one
312211 = one three, one one, two twos, two ones
13112221 = one one, one three, two ones, three twos, one one
1113213211 = three ones, one three, one two, one one, one three, one two, two ones
31131211131221 = one three, two ones, one three, one one, one two, three ones, one three, one one, two twos, one one
13211311123113112211 = one one, one three, one two, two ones, one three, three ones, one two, one three, two ones, one three, two ones, two twos, two ones

So the next item in sequence is:
