Construction is very difficult when needing a knitted object ti stand unaided. With the use of stuffing, plastic tubes, and tea-light holiders, Notokaybot (knitted version) requires a bit of tidying up with embroidery where the various parts are anchored together.

Revision of knitting instructions will follow when TestNotokaybot is finished.
