Carol Meldrum’s new book, Knitted Icons, includes patterns for knitted versions of famous people from Che Guevara to Elvis Presley. Knitted Borat and Amy Winehouse are pictured above. The book includes a photograph of every finished doll and a brief biography of the icon. [via] Link.

Marilyn Monroe Bruce Lee, Abraham Lincoln, Jackie O, Che Guevara, Jimi Hendrix, Albert Einstein, Cher, James Dean, Muhammad Ali, King Kong, Godzilla, Madonna, Andy Warhol, Chairman Mao, The Beatles, Charlie Chaplin, Gandhi, Queen Elizabeth II, Bob Marley, Audrey Hepburn, Bob Dylan, Mr T, Ziggy Stardust, and Elvis
