A Chebyshev curve $\mathcal{C}(a,b,c,\phi)$ has a parametrization of the form$ x(t)=T\_a(t)$; \ $y(t)=T\_b(t)$; $z(t)= T\_c(t + \phi)$, where $a,b,c$are integers, $T\_n(t)$ is the Chebyshev polynomialof degree $n$ and $\phi \in \mathbb{R}$. When $\mathcal{C}(a,b,c,\phi)$ is nonsingular,it defines a polynomial knot. We determine all possible knot diagrams when $\phi$ varies. Let $a,b,c$ be integers, $a$ is odd, $(a,b)=1$, we show that one can list all possible knots $\mathcal{C}(a,b,c,\phi)$ in$\tilde{\mathcal{O}}(n^2)$ bit operations, with $n=abc$.
