Row 1: In 2nd ch from hook (1sc, 2dc in next ch) *[skip 2ch, 1sc 2dc in next ch]*, repeat from * to * until you reach the last 3ch, skip 2ch, 1sc in the last ch, turn.

Please do not overcomplicate this easy crochet pattern because after your first row you are working INTO the SC of the PREVIOUS round, ie. putting the stitch combination (sc, 2dc) into each sc of previous round

( I have added a very clear video below which I suggest watching to understand the TURN of your work.
Chain 3, dc in next 3 stitches. Work 4 chain stitches, TURN your Work and slip stitch INTO the top of your chain 3 (4 Dc and a chain 4 space, which you will work the 7 Dc into)
TURN your Work
Chain 1 and work 7 DCs into the Chain space created by Chain 4.
DC into the next 4 stitches from the previous round, and work 4 double crochets, 4 chain stitches, and TURN. slip stitch INTO the top of your chain 3 (4 Dc and a chain 4 space) Repeat around.
Finish off by slip stitching into the very first stitch combination.
Fasten off and weave in ends.
