Crochet translation help?

Question

I'm having difficulty moving from row 2 to 3.

Row 2: ch1, sc in first 2 sc, * ch 2, skip next 2 sc, sc in next 2 sc; rep from across, turn

Row 3: ch 3, *4dc in next ch-2 sp; rep from * to last 2 sc; skip next sc, dc in last sc; turn

Does this mean 4 double crochet in EACH crochet from row 2?

Answer 1

At the end of row 2 , you should have a bunch of small loops or spaces all the way across the row ( from the "chain 2" spaces). So you start off row 3 by chaining 3, then work 4 double crochet stitches right in those loops. Then you repeat all the way across until the last few stitches.

Answer 2

Do not crochet in the single crochets. You need to do 4 double crochets in each chain 2 space.  The only sc you'll dc in is the last sc.  Hope this helps.

Answer 3

shorty is wrong. no where in the directions does it say to ch 2 after the 4 dc. Just put 4dc in the open spaces left by the chains in the previous row. Those 4 dc will replace the 2 sc and the 2 chains from row 2 so that you have the same amount of stitches in each row.

Answer 4

It means that you will have 4dc in each of the ch 2 of row 2.

4dc in the first ch-2 space, ch-2 then 4dc in the next ch-2 of row 2 and continue to the instructions following the second *.
