Yes, but they *are* patterns. The left and right edges are mirror images of each other, and the bit in the middle is an eight stitch repeat. I have two stitch-markers to remind me where the edges meet the middle section (you can just see one of them in the top pic, the grey loop at the bottom of the pic). They hang on the needle between the stitches and are simply slipped from left to right needle in the process of the work.
