No need. Font Maker automatically installs a font that allows you to create your own knotwork. You just have to work out which letter corresponds to which shape.

Here's another free open source java program: Because of malware being found in SourceForge downloads, this link has been removed.
You have just four basic shapes to choose from that you can easily manipulate and re-design using a right-click menu.

This one's great fun - go on, have a click! Sadly, it's internet only. You can download the source but I'm not a coder so I wouldn't know what to do with it. I'd love to have an offline version.

On their main page, they got a celtic wormhole Erisian; think you saw that eh? lol

I know an easy way to create it (as long as you have a celtic circle knotwork). ;)

KnotPlot - It also animates the 3D image

When I was on my know quest a few years back, I ran into a site that linked this cool program Rod. Too cheap to buy it then (and I'm still cheap). lol

Nope - it's for windows. Quote from site: Click here to download v1.19b. Unzip it into a convenient folder and it should run under XP, Vista or Windows-7 (even the 64bit version)
