KnotTheory` can also draw knots and links via their Morse link presentations:


For example, here is the 11-crossing alternating link L11a548:


There are two options available for this program. Adding the option Gap -> g, where g is between 0 and 1, changes the amount of white space in each crossing; increasing g increases the white space, making large diagrams more visible. The option ArrowSize -> as (where as is between 0 and 1) alters the size of the orientation arrows. Here is the same drawing as above, but this time the orientation arrows are gone and the crossings are more clear:
