Android - Free Crochet Pattern

ANDROID

Easy and fast to crochet, a must have for every Android fan. :)

I made this little guy for my husband's birthday. He actually requested it. Not specifically for his birthday, but since it was coming up it was the perfect gift.

With this pattern you can crochet two versions of the Droid.

• with original legs with rounded ends (cannot stand on his own – I helped for the fotos)
• with modified legs with flattened ends (can stand on his own)

The arms are movable! :)

Note: My patterns have two parts.

• You're a pro? Great, then the first part of my pattern is most likely all you need. You'll find pure crochet instructions there with a few pictures on the side. Have a quick look on page 2 to check which pages to print (the box in the upper left corner).
• You're a beginner? Then additionally to the pure crochet instructions you'll find lots of step-by-step instructions for the different steps in the second part of this pattern. Everything is explained in detail with lots of pictures and in understandable words.

SIZE

• The size depends on your gauge, chosen type of yarn and crochet hook size.
• I'm using Puppets Lyric yarn (8/8, DK/Light-Worsted) from Coats and a 3 mm hook.
• With that I get the following size/s: 7.5 cm (without antennae)
