The technique for crocheting a second row in a piece differs for each stitch.
For example, for single crochets, you go up one chain, turn and go into the first loop on your piece (the top that looks like a braid or a v).
For double crochet, you generally chain up 3 and go into the second stitch of the row.
The number of chains needed may vary depending on the personal tension of the crocheter and how tall your stitches are. However, it is important to note that in single crochet, the chain up does NOT count as a stitch and in double and triple crochet it does. This makes a difference in which stitch is worked as your final stitch of the succeeding rows. If you miss the last stitch, or you go into the wrong first stitch, you will lose or add stitches on each row causing your work to go in directions you did not plan.

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 '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.
What does continue in pattern as established mean in crochet?
This will be a hypothetical crochet pattern here; Row 1: double crochet 3, single crochet three, double crochet 3. Repeat in pattern as established. Repeating in pattern as established basically means double crochet the double crochets and single crochet the single crochets. It means repeat whatever you did to make the stitch pattern over and over again to keep the pattern going. The hypothetical pattern I used below may have been for a wave but not sure. These "established patterns" can be one row or fifty rows. it just means work through each row and then once the one pattern repeat is finished (meaning you've worked all those fifty rows) then you start at row 1 again and work your way up. Hope that helps.

How do you add a new skein of yarn to the one you are knitting with?
* There is no 'cast on' in crocheting. 'Cast on' is a knitting term. Crochet is generally started with a simple loop repeated to form a chain. * You don't cast on exactly because you have only one stitch at a time on the hook. In knitting it is called casting on because you are putting a whole row of stitches on a needle. Instead in crochet we make a "foundation chain." Determine the number of stitches you want in a row and make a chain of that many stitches. If you plan to do single crochet, add one additional chain to count as the first single crochet of the second row after you turn. For a row of half double crochet, make it two extra chains and for a double crochet, make it three extra chains.

How do you crochet a ridge with double crochet going into single crochets?
It sounds like you want to work blo, or "back loop only". This will produce a ridge along the row when viewed from the right side of the work. It is produced by working the double crochet stitches into the back loop only, of the single crochet stitches in the row below. Its very nice looking and if you work a swatch in the back loop only, and turn it on its side, you will see that it looks and stretches a bit like ribbing.
What does purl mean in crochet?
As far as I'm aware, there is no "purl" in crochet, but there is in knitting.Knitting has basically two stitches, a "knit" and a "purl."In a knit stitch, the yarn is drawn through the previous row, by passing through from below. In a purl stitch, the yarn is drawn through the previous row, from above. This creates an effect, where on one side, a knit stitch appears to be knit, and on the other side, the same stitch appears to be purled. This explains why directions for knitting often speak of the "right (or front) side" or the "wrong (or back) side" of a project.Crochet has stitches which are a slip stitch, a chain stitch, a single crochet, a half crochet, a double crochet, a triple crochet, a double treble crochet, and even a triple treble crochet. I have not seen any patterns which call for a larger than triple treble crochet stitch.
