| c s | change shuttle |
| sh 1 | shuttle 1 (the one you used for making the stitch when starting out. |
| sh 2 | shuttle 2 (the one you used as passive shuttle). |
| RW | reverse work |
| # | marker for repetitions |
| t & c | tie and cut |
In my patterns, I assume you know that a ring must be closed, and that work is to be reversed when changing from rings to chains and vice versa. I only mention RW when it occurs at unusual places.
