Crochet Robot Plush – Free Pattern

robot1 This pattern was designed by Madi Paris, exclusively for The Stitchin’ Mommy

I am a nerd at heart.  I had been wanting to crochet a robot for a while and finally decided to jump on the chance when I looked at my packing list for college this fall and saw they suggested being stuffed animals.  Thus, I made “RALPH” the Robot to be my buddy in my dorm.  I wrote this pattern myself so if there are any mistakes, please let me know and I will try to fix and clarify the issues!
