Pattern clarification

I'm just starting this project & I had a question about the pattern. In row 2, it is sc FL in each dc across. Do I continue to use FL in the rest of the pattern also, or just the rows that say to repeat row 2?

SC in the front loop only in the rows instructed (Row 2 and repeats of Row 2, in other words).

Sunday Swing Coat - LOVE IT!

I have an 18 month old daughter and I decided to make this for her. Day 3 of starting it and it is just about finished! I am so happy about how quickly it is working up, and it's so so so pretty! I am not using the same type nor color of yarn as listed in the pattern, however. I am thinking about doing a couple of these in solid colors along with adjusting the pattern to make one to fit myself as a vest.
