How many chains at the end of the row are needed? This pattern doesn’t specify that.

Laurie Ellisor says
What do you mean by turning chain? Can you specify which rows these would be? The term is very confusing. Thanks in advance.
Louise Bollanos says
Hello Laurie, the turning chains you need at the end of each row are already included in the pattern.
Crochet a turning chain (one or more chain stitches that you make after you’ve turned your crocheted work) before you begin your next row.
The purpose of the turning chain is to bring your yarn to the height necessary in order to work the first stitch of your next row or round.
As you can see in both rows 1 and 2 – you will ch 3 or ch 1 before turning the work, this helps to keep the edges of your work straight and the right height for the next row.
I hope that helps!
Louise
