The pattern says
ROW 3: Sl st in each of next 2 chs, (ch 4, sc in next ch-4 sp)3
times, ...etc etc
I need a picture to understand WHAT SPACE they are talking about
Barab -
The spaces they are talking about are from the pattern in the previous row or rows. It is the space between stitches in the previous rows. For instance, if you did a row of treble crochet, there is a space between each line of treble crochet.
I hope this helps.
