If you haven't figured this out yet, try this. I'll assume you're doing SC but if not, change to DC.
Ch1
Make 2 SC in first SC of previous row.
SC in next 6
Make 2 SC in next
SC in next 6
(Continue until you've done 2 SC in 6 stitches in that row)
Now, you've increased six stitches over your original 42 stitches and you're ending with 48.
In your next row, row 3, you'll have to increase another 6 stitches spreading them out over the 48 stitches. You'll end with 54 stitches this time.
Do increase rows for a total of 7 rows. You will have 84 stitches (if my math is correct) when you're finished with rows 2-8.
I hope this helps.

Rows 2-8 of the pattern reads chain 1, stitch increase evenly 6 times around (48 st). Can you tell me exactly how this is done? Thanks.
Chain 1, then increase by working 2 single crochets in the one stitch evenly around the row. Work so many sc (single crochets), then work 2 sc in another stitch to increase.
The pattern reads "work shell of 1dc, ch1, 1dc" in next stitch. I am confused as to into what stitch I am crocheting the last dc.

Absolutely right. In the next stitch work 1 dc ch 1 1 dc. These three steps are what is going to create your shell look, that's why they must be in the same stitch.
I have just learned to crochet and I came across in my pattern directions, "2dc closed together on next two dc".
I need some crocheting help. I am teaching myself to crochet, and I'm having trouble deciphering this part of a pattern: "*dcfp in next 2 stitches, dcfp in next 2 stitches, repeat until end of row".
