We consider two well‐known constructions for Steiner triple systems. The first construction is recursive and uses an STS( v ) to produce a non‐resolvable STS(2 v + 1), for v ≡ 1 (mod 6). The other construction is the Wilson construction that we specify to give a non‐resolvable STS( v ), for v ≡ 3 (mod 6), v > 9. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Combin Designs 13: 16–24, 2005.
