The awesome machine embroidery patterns that Nancy Cochrane offered for free on this site have proved to be VERY popular. So much so, that  a discussion ensued on that post, and another stitcher programmed an Obama portrait for use on a digital embroidery machine. This one is offered in PES (Brother) format. If you are able to convert this file into other formats, please send it on to me at obamacraftproject@gmail.com and I’ll post it here for download. Thank you so much to Kathy Dederich for this design!

Lise wrote this pattern for an Obama knitted beanie hat that’ll keep your head and ears warm when you’re, like Lise, pounding the pavement for Obama this fall. She was spotted by Susan registering voters at Portland’s Crafty Wonderland, and has generously offered this pattern as a free download (simply click to start the download–it’s a PDF) here on the Obama Craft Project!

We hope to see lots of these hats knocking on doors soon! Send us the pictures (obamacraftproject@gmail.com) and we’ll share ‘em!

(Shout-out to Susan for connecting us with Lise and her fabulous pattern.)

With the cool weather rapidly approaching in many parts of the country, an Obama logo knitted cap is just the ticket. Flickr user skullsnbats used the logo pattern available for free here to create a cap for her dad.

Why not knit one up to wear in case it’s chilly on November 4?

You can craft up your own “Cute Ass for Obama” with this fun knitting pattern from Etsy seller caffaknitted, and benefit the Obama campaign too—she’s making a donation to the campaign for each pattern sold. She developed this pattern to celebrate the North Carolina primary—which Obama won by a good 15 points!
