Cute Crochet Robot, Mr. Banks!

I've done it again... I've crocheted a handsome fellow all by myself. I mean, I always do it all by myself, but what I mean is that I created him and the pattern literally all by myself!

I did have inspiration, though! My little lady's nursery is all decorated in robots. When I see stuff with robots, like shirts or tights or "piggy" banks, I just can't help myself--it winds up in our little robot shrine. It's really cute in there, honestly.

Ramona likes to say goodnight to her robots. We say goodnight to "Stan," and "Lois," and "Boris," (framed prints on the wall), then Mr. Banks, and Gregory! (Gregory is a *reallyreally* awesome lamp that my husband's BFF, Greg, gave us after she was born. It just seemed like the right name to give it.)

So, sometimes I find myself sitting there in her room, rocking her or just sitting while she destroys the order of everything *ahem*, and I think to myself "hey, self, you should make a crochet robot similar to that one!" And so, I bring you... Mr. Banks!!



I've also written a children's book about Mr. Banks... hopefully to be published in the near future. :-)
