How to Read Pattern?

R5: ch, [1 sc, sc inc] x 6, sl st

In Round 5, start with a chain stitch, then repeat the pattern “1 single crochet, single scrochet increase” 6 times. End with a slip stitch.

(sc+sc+sc)

Parentheses ( ) indicate that all stitches within them are worked into the same stitch. So ‘(sc+sc+sc)’ means working 3 single crochet stitches all into the same stitch.
