This photo shows a close look at the stitches used in a slanted vs design. I've marked the stitches on the photo to help you see exactly how the slanted v-stitches are made for this design.
The instruction (sc, dc, ch 1, dc) all in next sc is the way that the instruction is read in the pattern. Below that, I've marked those stitches on the photo, to be read from right to left, the same direction in which the stitches would be crocheted by a right-handed crocheter.
