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.

It means "single crochet". The stitch is the shortest of the crochet stitches and makes a very compact garment. Other notations can be double crochet, half double crochet, and even double triple crochet.Always read the whole pattern thoroughly before you begin your work.To sc in sc means to place your next single crochet stitch into the next single crochet stitch from the previous row. If your next stitch is a chain, for example, you would skip it and go to the next single crochet.

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.

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 does it mean when a crochet pattern says to sc in next ch to next ch-1sp?

When a crochet pattern instructs you to "sc in next ch to next ch-1 sp," it means you should single crochet (sc) into the chain (ch) that immediately follows the current position, and then move to the next chain-1 space (ch-1 sp) in the pattern. This indicates that you'll be placing the single crochet in a specific location while also indicating that you should be aware of the next designated space for additional stitches or pattern elements. Essentially, it's guiding you on where to place your stitch in relation to the structure of the project.
