This would be a good book to have for making gifts for boys ( some girls too of course). When the book arrived at the house, my five year old boy was already requesting which "bot" he wanted me to make. His favorite was the ninjabot. Even my husband made a comment on how it was a "cool book". That's the first time my husband has ever showed any interest in any of my craft books!
*One thing to note, lots of the projects have small pieces such as beads and metal incorporated into the patterns. I would not give these to a child under 4 unless for display purposes only.
Ninjabot - my son's favorite
Geisha

One can never have too many robots, or ninjas... ninjarobots unite!
These are SOO cute! I'd love to make them! Count me in.
OMG! Those are so precious!!
Just the name 'zombiebot' cracks me up. This seems like a great book!
What a great amigurumi book! I adore the idea of robots rather than cute animals.
Well... I admit I love the cute animals, too. But all the robots in this book are totally adorable.
I think robots are so cute. The one on the cover is adorable. I agree with your husband. This does look like a cool book!
OMG! That's awesome... Thanks for the opportunity! Hope i win... hee hee..
These are absolutely ADORABLE!!! I love them!
I think robots are taking the crafting community by storm. Owls better watch out.
I love amigurumi, and the dog robot is especially cute!
This looks like a great book. Nice small gifts for boys (and men!) who are often a little opposed to the cute animals.
What a super cool book! The robots rock in all their incarnations. I love the ninjabot's throwing star.
The Geisha is adorable! What a wonderful book!
You are going to get a ton of responses for this giveaway. What a cute book! It's not easy to find patterns that are suitable for boys, so this book is a gift in itself! My son would be delighted (and my daughter too!) Thanks for the fun giveaway!
How cute they are! I want to make mine!
I'm brazilian and I love your blog. It's cute and full of interesting thinks, really ^^
I don't know if I can win it, but if it's possible, I promisse to pay the shipping if I win!

These CroBots are sooo Kawaii! I would love to make them - I'm just learning to crochet and I just LURVE Japanese stuff, so to win this would make my heart melt! Thank you for the chance. (I'll give you my email address if I win) Thanks x
Yummy! Those crobots give me a reason to dust off the ol' crochet hooks.
I don't think I've seen a cuter book; these patterns are adorable. I'm getting my hooks ready!!
Omg, I adore robots and I love to crocher! And this book sounds like so much fun. Please enter me in this contest.

Those crobots are so adorable! I would definitely start with the Dogbot- it looks like the cutest of them all :)
One word describes them perfectly...ADORABLE!!!
(calamityanne@myway.com)
Fantastic! I love amigurumi but so many of the patterns out there are too similar - it's great to see something different. If I don't win, I'll be buying myself a copy!
Cute! I'd love those too.
crobots is such a cute name for crochet robots!
I'd love to make some crobots! mk467@hotmail.com! keep up the great work!

I like the first one, he's fab!
hi,
you're featured on www.illustrativo.com
count me in too
These are the cutest ever. I love patterns that will make little boys smile!
My pref is the geisha, beautiful!!!!!!
It's so hard to craft for boys and this is perfect. I would actually love them for myself too!
These are the absolute cutest!!!
OMG! What a cute book! I'd love to have it (I'm not very good at boys gifts ideas)!!!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Ayelet
very crool, crobots.
zakka just keeps getting better, i love this idea for my son. nowjust to get someone to teach me how to crochet!! Yay!!!!!
Crobots... What a cute idea. I bet if I got this book my boyfriend would demand all of them XD
They are all so cute but Ninjabot is the one for me!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Cute! I flipped through this in Barnes & Noble, and decided to pick it up during the next Educator's week (25% off on any book!) I think dogbot is my fave. Zombiebot was intriguing, as I don't understand an undead robot. I'll ask my husband. :)
OMG, these are waaaaay too cute. I love making amigurumi animals, but robots are a whole 'nother level! Waiiiiii~!
Dogbot! My boys would love! sueneufeldatyahoodotcom
My daughter was looking over my shoulder when I was reading the blog and she thought they were great. Now she wants a dogbot!.
Would love to make some of these - bringing robots back to crafting.
super cute! and likely a fast project. I am in.
After absolutely years of planning to learn to crochet I finally did so just a month ago so this looks like a great way to cut my teeth. The Dogbot is very cute also :)
These are absolutely the cutest!! I would love to make these. What a treasure trove for Christmas Gifts for kiddies young and old.
bvinette@yahoo.com
So cute! I'd love to do these - and my kids would love 'em as well! jacksonfamily@gmail.com
They look fun! My son is a big robot fan right now because of WallE. I've always loved them. :-)
Those are so amazing! I learned how to crochet a little when I was younger from my mother. Good memories :)
How cute are these? I am in love with the geisha!! I have been wanting to make something so I could participate in the toy society and these are perfect!
just too cute, would love to win that book
my email: sandra AT modes4u . com
I am a knitter, so I like that this book offers basic crochet instructions. Dogbot is a cutie...!
these are adorable!
sweeps4bloggers@gmail.com
How wonderful to see LaFee Crochette's work in such a cool book! Would be worth it for the pictures alone! I'm definitely in!
Do androids crocheters dream of amigurumi sheeps?
:)
They are very cute! Thanks!

There are not many craft books about robots and I always on the look out for not too feminine craft. I think Robots can be adorable without being too girly.
Robots are so cute! This seems like a great book :)
I love this CROBOTS!I'm a beginner crochet lover, and i would love too do all of them, the first one i will do is the geisha....so nice!

Lovin' the dogbot...reminds me of my son's favorite episode of Krypto the Superdog. Thanks for the giveaway!
My nephews would LOVE these. Thanks for the boy-friendly craft idea!
I live for robots.
sorry... email is scherne72@yahoo.com
I think they are one of the cutest things ever!
I love the crobots! It makes a change from all the cutsie baby animals etc. that are more suited to girls. My boys would love them!
OH OH OH never ever seen this book before i would love to go in the draw for it i would sure have fun with it .
oh man...so many participants! =o) do i get an advantage since i'm your sister-in-law? these crobots are so cute! i could see why my bro and nephew thought they were cool. they are! =o)
Deliciously adorable!
I'm right in the process of crocheting a Sackboy (for those who play LBP), so of course I'm in a super crochet mood now.
Love the idea with the beads too! I've got a big box of them and no idea what to do with them. I've heard of crochet bracelets with beads, but never even thought of putting them in stuffed animals!
I <3 ninjabot.
killerturnips@yahoo.com
sooo cute- i actually saw my first crobot a few days ago, then another, and now more!
Thanks for the giveaway!I am sooo happy to get here on time! the book looks great!
i love the geisha! nice to have something that is different for boys too.
I recently started crocheting again, after a long break, and I love it. It would be so much fun to make these robots for my nieces and nephews and for my friends' children.

And she's got cancer.

Those are too cute!!!
i had my first crochet lesson the other night... lets just say i will need a few more before i can create a robot!! but perhaps in time...
%*_*% rosey thanks for the chance
p.s. is this a sign... the word verification thingy is foryme
Those 'bots are adorable!
It took me a minute to realize the Geisha had her eyes closed, and not bushy eyebrows with mad, red eyes. Because of that, I think she's my favorite. :)
These are so cute. They would inspire me to do some crocheting. Thanks for the giveaway.
Binary solo! 000001...00001

These are so cute! My sister would love this! Thanks!
Those look awesome & would make great gifts-I would love to make a set of geishabots with different outfits!
Clever, clever Crobots!!

great book for boy gifts!
I craft alot for my girls

hard to craft gifts for
them... this sounds perfect!
Thank you!!

Very cool, love robots here. My kids would love these!
Oh, so cute.
I'd be willing to learn how to crochet to make these
Oh so cute, but not in a girly way :) My 3 boys would love me even more if I crocheted up a bunch of these little guys for them :)

Fun project for my daughter and I to work on for Father's Day gifts! My daugher has become "hooked" on crocheting and we are always looking for fun and unique projects for her to work on. However, I can see having a hard time parting with these guys once they are done!
I am a big fan of your work and I found that crafting has been a great outlet for the stress that I have had to deal with in vast amounts lately. Thank you for sharing!!!
Oh! So cute! If I had this book I would Make an Army of bots for my little brother to play with.....but them he would probably attack me with them lol.
(puddn_lives@yahoo.com)

thanks for tha chance!
carmelita@windowslive.com

I saw the Crobots book last week and the bookstore and thought it was so cute. I've made robots before, learned to crochet this past year, so this would be perfect to win! Thanks for the chance.
Hope Im not too late!!! I love robots, haven't seen the book out, but thanks for offering the giveaway.
i am in love with the one on the cover! im psyched for the winner anouncement!!!!!
Am I too late for this! I love this book I found it earlier on Amazon and put it on my wish list, well you never know ;)
Aren't they cute?! Crobot Robots make me feel all fuzzy. Robots don't normally make me feel like that. Normally they make me feel all tinny.

oooh how intresting, a bit of a oximoron type idea bots and crochet, but you have got to love it.
I like the contrast between robots and yarn.
