That is a long stitch. Just count 4 rows down and insert your hook in the stitch in line with the stitch on your present row but on the row 4 rows down. You will have to work very loosely and pull up your golden loop so that your stitches on the present row remain even and your work doesn't pull in.

What does this mean in a crochet pattern holding the last lp of each st on the hook sk next 2 sc 3tr in next sc?
I believe this would be: hold the last loop of each stitch on hook (which means to stop one short when doing your final pulling though for the stitch) skip next two single crochet (meaning to simply not do anything in those next two single crochet stitches and jump over them.) three triple crochet in next single crochet. (meaning to make three triple crochet stitches in the next single crochet after the ones you skipped.) I hope this will clear that up.

What is 2 double crochet in next chain twice Miss next chain 1 double chain in next chain 5 times?
Now, I'm not the best at reading crochet directions, personally, I like symbol crochet charts to read. To me, it's easier to understand.Okay, my best guess would be that you:double crochet twice into a single chain stitch (from the row below)do it again (double crochet 2 stitches into the next chain stitch)now, skip the next chain stitch (don't stitch anything into that chain stitch)now, double crochet into the following chain stitch.Without punctuation is it unclear whether you are to repeat the above stitch set in the order given five times, or whether it means to repeat the last instruction (double crochet in next chain) 5 times. If you have a photo of the finished piece you should be able to tell if there are five double crochets in a row as the last part of the repeat.
What does post mean in crochet?
The word "post" in crochet is referring to the whole stitch--generally a "tall" stitch (such as a double crochet, triple crochet, etc).The reason the instructions refer to the stitch in the row below, is so the crocheter understands that you are to stitch around the stitch below--the "post" of the stitch. Otherwise, if the instructions stated that you were to double crochet the next stitch, you would understand that you would be double crocheting into the top of the stitch below, versus crochet around the length of the stitch.You also notice that the instructions will say to "back post double crochet (bpdc)" which means to bring your stitch around the post from the back position. So, "front post, double crochet (fp dc)" would mean to bring your stitch in from the front side of your work.
What does this mean in a crochet pattern dc in each dc across and in top of ch-3?

What does shell of single crochet mean in a crochet pattern?
After a quick scan of the relatedlink (listed below), I am understanding that a shell of single crochet stitches means that a shell pattern can be made by knotting a single stitch, then skipping two stitches, then making 5 double crochets in the next stitch. Then you would skip the next two stitches and start another shell by one stitch, skip two, make 5 doubles, skip two stitches, and start another. And so on.
How do you single and double crochet?
The following is the American meaning of double crochet. The British system would call this stitch a treble. A British d.c. is an American single crochet. Double crochet is one of the three basic stitches of crochet: chain, single crochet and double crochet. To make a double crochet: 1. Put the working yarn over the hook (this is called a "yarn over"). 2. Insert the hook in the next stitch in the row below. 3. Yarn over again and pull that yarn over back out through the stitch. There are now three loops on the hook. 4. Yarn over again, and pull that yarn over through the first two looks on the hook. Two loops remain on the hook. 5. Yarn over again, and pull that yarn over through the remaining two loops. When you finish a row and turn, start a row of double crochet by first chaining three stitches. This chain-3 counts as the first stitch of the row. For a single crochet, chain only one to start a new row.
What does 'Chain 4 then make single turning chain' in a crochet pattern mean?
In crochet, because stitches have "height" (where in knitting stitch height isn't much of an issue), crocheters add chain stitches to the end of a row to add height, in order to begin the next row.So, in your instructions, chain 4, then make a single turning chain, would mean to add another chain, turn your work so that you could then begin crocheting the second row. You would then insert your hook into the second chain from the hook and crochet the next stitch (which is going to be a single crochet--sc--due to only using one turning chain)There is a standard turning chain number, depending on the stitch you are going to use in the next row. [the link shows how many turning chains for each crochet stitch].For a:slip stitch = 0 turning chainsingle crochet = 1 turning chainhalf double crochet = 2 turning chainsdouble crochet = 3 turning chainstriple crochet = 4 turning chainsand so on.You see that as the stitch height grows, so do the number of chain stitches in your turning chain.
