We study vortex knotting in the Faddeev-Skyrme model. Starting with a
straight vortex line twisted around its axis we follow its evolution under
dissipative energy minimization dynamics. With low twist per unit length the
vortex forms a helical coil, but with higher twist numbers the vortex becomes
knotted or a ring is formed around the vortex.
