I like to see even in a written pattern the visual aspect, that is why I write down all double stiches and picots of a ring or chain and I do not write the sequence that is repeated in brackets with the number of times to repeat, like: 4+(4 - ) 3 times. I prefer to write instead: 4+4 - 4 - 4. If it is long I might give a short explanation in brackets, starting with "ie".
Abbreviations:
R ring
CH chain
sR split ring
sCH split chain
rw rewind work (reminder in special cases)
- picot
+ joined picot
cs change shuttle [ed.'s note: switch shuttles]
