Struggling with a crochet pattern

Hi all, I'm currently working on a crochet blanket and I'm having some trouble with the pattern. I'm not sure if I'm misunderstanding the instructions or if there's a mistake in the pattern. Has anyone else run into this problem and found a solution? Thanks in advance,  Olivia

Can you show us pattern & where you're stuck?  Maybe we can help determine what its flaw seems to be
