I don't have a copy of the magazine. Because of copyright laws you can't scan a pattern here but you can type a line or 2 that is giving you trouble and we can try to help.

looks like there is a typo.  it says "sc in each of the next 3sc,"   

and  you can't do that because there are no previous sc.  I think it should say "in the next 3 ch."  

 

then you do the 3 sc in last chain, and pivot the chain around so that the bottom of the chain is now facing upward, and you stitch into that edge of the chain.  

 

put in a marker at the end of each round so you can keep count of your sts.
