You may not know it yet, but you need a robot. Your cuddly robot can help you in many ways. He’s great for dusting the house and mopping up spills. Glue on a magnet and he can mind your small tools, metal parts, and trinkets. He can even cheer you up when you are sad or just look cute on your desktop.

PLEASE NOTE: This pattern walks you through making an armature in case you want your robot’s wheels to spin and the head and arms to move. These steps require a bit more work, and truth be told, your robot may have some trouble standing still with moveable wheels. If instead, you’d like a stationary cuddly robot, omit the armature, sew on the head and wheels, and stuff as normal. You should still be able to insert a 7″ length of wire for the arms without attaching it to anything. Crochet around the wire and create the claws as directed in the last two steps of the pattern, and they should function just fine.
