Two knots in three-space are S-equivalent if they are indistinguishable by
Seifert matrices. We show that S-equivalence is generated by the doubled-delta
move on knot diagrams. It follows as a corollary that a knot has trivial
Alexander polynomial if and only if it can be undone by doubled-delta moves.
