How to create a pattern of holes in the shape of a clover on a background of språng interlinking. Based on Fenny Nijman's book Sprang - Egyptisch Vletchten, where she names it "klavertje" which is the Dutch word for clover. Beside the pattern she gives a photograph of a plant, a four-leaved clover.

You can see an example of the clover pattern in an image showing silk mittens from the early 1800s on the Rijks museum website. The Rijksmuseum is in the Netherlands. Search for "Egyptisch vlechtwerk."

Elisabeth Siewertsz van Reesema, whose språng work is in the same museum, shows a collar patterned with clovers in her book Egyptisch Vletchwerk.
