Obama knitted doll

This yarn-based homage to US's 44th president was a special request for my friend's sister, who is a big fan (most of us are!) and will be giving him a good home in Cardiff (ooh, maybe he'll bump into Jack Harkness!).

He's based on Jean Greenhowe's Little Gift Doll pattern. Caffaknitted's fab Obama doll is a better likeness, but I've not yet tried knitting in the round and didn't want my first attempt to be on someone's birthday pressie!

Thank you Kristen for the dolly, it is wonderful, I love it! As your pal also said a little Michelle to go with it would look so cute! x x x
