i dont think thats the same thing the small boton is tied similar to a gaucho knot not started as a turkshead.

Thanks Tracy,

Here are the Grid Maker links to the 2 pass + the 3 pass Gaucho Fan Knots.

This is the 9x8 2 pass Gaucho knot, which is enlarged from a 5x4 2 pass Gaucho knot

(Hall calls this 5x4 Gaucho a very small Spanish Ring knot).

I made this grid after Brian showed us the 3 pass below.

2 pass Gaucho Fan Knot

Brian, aka: knothead, showed us this grid over on KHWW.net. Brian's thread on the Grid Maker

3 pass Gaucho Fan Knot

Sorry, hope I'm not hijacking the thread too much.

no the small boton is similar too the gaucho knot but not the same... the edges are o2u2 but the center is o3u3. in the large boton the edges are o2u2 and the center is o6u6

Thanks Tracy.

See if these look better (the bights can be adjusted following the common divisor rule to make a larger knot).

OK, after looking closer at the half cycle run lists, the 3 section fan or boton oriental in Grant's book only has 8 bights while the link in the previous post has 11 bights for a larger knot.

So here's the grid for the 25part x 8bight 3 section fan or boton oriental.

I've also included the two grids into the Grid Catalog at KHWW.

Thanks again so much Tracy and I can't wait to see your bracelets.
