In order to study the spin configurations of the classical one-dimensional
Heisenberg model, we map the normalized unit vector, representing the spin, to
a space curve. We show that the total chirality of the configuration is a
conserved quantity. When the space curve forms a knot, this defines a new class
of topological spin configurations for the Heisenberg model.
