Hi Terri, welcome to the group!
I would think that it would be best to space out the sc as evenly as
possible. At the start of the row, put 2sc in the half shell, then I would
put one sc in each side of each shell and one in the middle, not forgetting
the sc in the sc. This gives 4sc for each pattern repeat.
