Crochet Cactus Pincushion Pattern
Some people don't like to crochet items that are purely decorative. While arguably a plant, even a crochet one, can add a lot of beauty to your life, if you're a minimalist then it might not be for you. You might be thinking, "it's nice, but what can I do with it?" If that's the case, then this crochet pincushion shaped like a cactus is for you.
When it's not filled with pins, it looks just like a regular, simple crochet cactus. Add different types of pins and you can create entirely different looks (think: thorns and flowers). It's functional as well as adorable. Set one on your sewing table or craft desk.
Fruit Crochet Coasters Free Pattern
One of the easiest ways to crochet fruit is to crochet circles in the colors of fruit slices. These circles can become a variety of items, the simplest of which is a coaster. These fruit-inspired crochet coasters designed by Marinke Slump for CraftTuts+ are a great beginner's crochet project. You can vary the colors to get different fruits; for example, use the lemon coaster crochet pattern with green yarn for a lime coaster.
Amigurumi Strawberry Free Crochet Pattern
Strawberries are another popular fruit to crochet, perhaps because they are the kind of food that makes everyone happy just to look at. These sweet treats are yummy symbols of summer but they are delicious yarn decor throughout the year. This free crochet pattern is by Jenni Designs.
