Pattern Notes

If the number is written before the stitch 2 dc, work 2 dc into the same stitch. If the number is written after the stitch dc 2, work dc into the next 2 stitches.

Repeat what is written in the () as many times as it’s written right after the (). For example, repeat (2 dc, dc 1) 5 times. It means that you have to repeat the sequence of working 2 dc st into the same st, and 1 dc into the next one 5 times, giving you 5 additional stitches by doing that.

The slip stitch does not count as a stitch in the pattern. Ch 3 does count as a stitch and the 2nd stitch should be in the next stitch. At the end of each round/row, please count how many sts you have at the end of that round/row.
