Actually, it’s even better than I thought! There’s a whole collection called “The String Doll Gang”. Here are some of them (click for larger):
Cute aren’t they? Yes, each apparently made of onecontinuouspieceofstring. More about them, and closeups (and prices) at this site.
Now, being a responsible citizen and all, I can’t discourage you enough from trying to match various members of the real live string community to these dolls. That would be a bad thing to do. Bad!

Geez!
I’m sorry for this blunder! I’ve had a long day, and I’m stupid this evening…
Nice string dolls.. I’ve seen one long ago at my cousin’s. Some poor people used to do this kind of doll back then.
