Transposition Gallery

While these designs look spectacular, the technique is one that beginners can master. All it requires is knowledge of the interlinking stitch, the edge stitch, and then repositioning groups of threads every few rows. It's the sprang equivalent of knitted cables.

Braids Within Braids

The first sample below follows Carol James' pattern.
​I've made pouches out of complex braids, or used simpler braids to decorate bags and scarves.

Other Transpositions

Many more design possibilities arise when groups of threads can move around. The first two samples below are inspired by Russian hairnets that Carol James has reproduced. Her pattern is available here. The other samples are experiments.
