Crocheting - Anyone know how to do Pineapple points?

The pattern that I have for a particular blanket is sooooo confusing! I have no idea if I'm doing it right...

What does the pattern say?

This is the site http://crochet.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.knitting-crochet.com%2Fcrochet%2Fbabyens.html

The problem is the shells...as far as I can tell, they actually should be worked over 6 stiches, and the ch 3 should actually skip over three stiches as well - it's the only way I can figure out to have 6 shells on each side. But traditionally, a shell is multiple stiches worked in the same stitch of the row below.

I think I figured it out last night, but the pattern is very confusing. I'll post a pic of what I've done tomorrow, but this is what it's supposed to look like.

ETA: Which row of the point is confusing you?If you follow it step by step, you will be ok.
