Having trouble understanding crochet pattern? the hdc of in to each from at and next WS end is

Having trouble understanding crochet pattern? I%26#039;m a beginer and want to challenge my self with making a sweater for my baby neice. This is the pattern, it was from the back of a yarn wrapper and seamed realtivly easy.

Beg at back wit MC, ch 43 (45-51). 1st Row (RS) 1hdc in 3rd from hook. 1 hdc in each hdc until end of row. Turn rep last row until work from begining measures 6.5 (7-8) ins, ending with WS row. Next 2 Rows Ch15 (17-19) 1hdc in 3 from hook. 1 hdc in each of next 12 (14-16) ch. 1hdc in eahc hdc until end of row turn 67 (73-83) hdc at end or 2nd roow. work 12 (12-14) rows even.

Shape neck and divide fronds: Next row: (RS) Ch 2, 1 hdc in each of next 24 (27-31) hdc. Turn Leave rem sts unworked. Next row: Ch 12 (12-13). 1 hdc in 3rd from hook. 1 hdc in each of next 9 (9-10) ch. 1 hdc in each HSC to end of row. Turn 34 (37-42) hsc.
Next row: (WS) ch 2. 1 hdc in each of nedt 21 (22-25) hsc. Place a marker on last st. Turn leave remaining sts unworked.
Cont even on last 21 (22-25) hdc until work from marker measures 6.5 (7-8) ins ending with WS row. Fasten off.
With RS facing, miss 19 (19-21) hdc at center of back. Join MC with sl st to next hdc. Ch 12 (12-13). 1 hdc in 3rd from hook. 1 hdcin each of next 9 (9-10) ch. 1 hdc in the same sp as first sl st. 1 hdc in each hdc to end of row 34 (37-42) hdc. Turn.
Work to correspond. to right front, reversing all shapings.

I have the first half done and understand every thing accept what WS row means. I am stuck at this part.
With RS facing, miss 19 (19-21) hdc at center of back. Join MC with sl st to next HDC. Ch 12 (12-13). 1 hdc in 3rd from hook. 1 hdc in each of next 9 (9-10) ch. 1 hdc in the same sp as first sl st. 1 hdc in each hdc to end of row 34 (37-42) hdc. Turn.

How would I revers all the shapings?

Also what does (WS) mean?
Thanks in advance.

WS means wrong side. I am trying to visualize the back but this is what I think it is trying to tell you. The reversing is the way you will be shaping the top part of the back. You will finish the left side of the back by following the instructions. You should now be at the end of the back at the right side. You have turned and following the instruction in reverse you will be making the shoulder on the right side. I hope this helps but not having the rest of the instructions kinda puts me at a loss. If there is not too much more of the instructions copy it and e-mail it to me and let me try to make more sense and maybe I would have to correct my information to you

I think I may have to add the sleve on. I just got frustrated trying to figure out the whole thing.
Thanks any ways.

• I can%26#039;t answer the whole thing but WS stands for wrong side. I don%26#039;t understand what you mean about reversing the shapings?
