Well I won't go as far as to say that I'm a full fledge designer, but I did design a cabled scarf for my friend Reema. She wanted to make a Cabled scarf for herself, and wasn't sure what to do. So I came up with a simple pattern with seed stitch border. I'm pretty proud of myself. It's a scarf but I did it from scratch. So here's the pattern if anyone wants. I did the wrote it out as well as charted.
Pattern: Reema's 'Leaving on the Next Plane' ScarfYarn: Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride
Instructions:
Abbreviations:
Sl = Slip
St(s) = Stitch(s)
Cn = Cable needle
CO = Cast On
C4f = Sl 2 sts to cn & hold in front, k next 2sts, then k 2sts from cn
C4b = Sl 2 sts to cn & hold in back, k next 2sts, then k 2sts from cn

Pattern:
CO: 26 sts
Row 1: *p,k* Repeat ** to the end of row
Row 2: *k,p* Repeat ** to the end of row
Row 3: p, k3, p8, k2, p8, k2, p, k

Gorgeous scarf! Love the horseshoe cabling.
Great scarf pattern! Thanks for sharing it. I've got the same question as Deborah, what software did you use for the chart?
Hi! Thanks for the link. I'm [] this close to learning how to knit. It looks like fun...hard and addicting and fun.
Nice scarf.. and just like the others, I'm in awe of your chart..!! Any info on how you achieved this would be so highly appreciated... :-P

I'd say that definitely makes you a designer. You should write up the pattern.
um, I see that you have written up the pattern *lol*
