Description: This lesson shows how to create the wire link popularly known as the “Love Knot.” This is not a jewelry project...it's a technique for creating the link to be used in a project. I first show how to create the knot itself, then I show how to turn it into link to be used in a bracelet, earrings or whatever. Price: $4.96

What's in a Name?
I indicate in the tutorial description that these knots might also be known as Danish Knots. It was brought to my attention that the Danish knot is made with 3 coils. This one is made with only 2 coils. I had recently edited the description and added 'also known as the Danish Knot' based on another artist's suggestion.
I really don't have a clue as to what the 'official' name of my knot is. I teach the technique in my classes and my students call them 'Love Knots' and more often, 'Love-Hate knots' because they can be real boogers.:)
There seem to be multiple names for similar or exactly-the-same-links. So in this case, full Danish knots, they're not....2/3 Danish knots, maybe. :) But some kind of Love Knot, definitely yes!

I purchased this tutorial through Stacy's etsy store and it's VERY easy to follow and VERY addictive :) I just LOVE the Love Knots!
I love this knot. It is so pretty and easy to make once you get the hang of it. I put this little boogers in many of my designs. I took classes with Stacey and she is a heck of a teacher. She gives all of her students top notch tutorials to follow along with every one of her class projects. Kudos Stacey! Keep the tutorials coming.
