Hello, I'm new to chart reading and cables! This pattern is from the Viking Patterns for Knitting Inspiration and Projects for Todays Knitter By Elsebeth Lavold.

I'm confused about the black boxes and what I'm suppose to be doing.

Also when there is an increase, on the next row, how am I suppose to treat the increase? because the pattern should be rectangular but with increases, won't it start getting bigger?
