Three Tiny Crochet Cactus Patterns (All Free)
The next three crochet cactus patterns in this round up might look a little familiar. After all, these are the same three cacti that we saw above-an armless young saguaro, a prickly pear, and a barrel cactus. However, the crochet patterns are completely different.
These crochet patterns are tiny. These are particularly great if you want to:
- Quickly complete an instant gratification project or last minute gift
- Use up small bundles of yarn, especially if you have green in your stash
- Want to make a cactus keychain or magnet
Although they are small, these crochet cactus patterns pack a big punch. In addition to single crochet, you'll get the opportunity to use double crochet. Plus you'll get to use both sc and dc post stitches. Not to mention, the added flower on top of each little crochet cactus is the perfect pop of color.
Sally the Crochet Cactus Pattern
Maybe you don't just want a cactus that truly looks like a regular houseplant. Perhaps instead you want to crochet something with more character. Enter Sally the Cactus. Sally is a really simple crochet cactus pattern that comes alive thanks to the addition of cute eyes and blushing cheeks.
Of course, you could actually use the same pattern to crochet a very simple cactus without the face on it as well. The design includes a crochet pot (as opposed to "planting" your cactus in a store-bought pot). It is worked in single crochet and half double crochet stitches with some use of the back loop only technique.
Flowering Prickly Pear Cactus Free Crochet Pattern
If you've never lived in the desert, then you might not realize just how colorful it gets during the springtime. Many cacti have beautiful flowers in bright red, yellow, and white colors. The prickly pear has a flower that brings a fruit which can be used to make jam. It's both beautiful and tasty.
This free crochet cactus pattern represents that type of cactus. The prickly pear fruit is bright red; the flowers are yellow; and the thorns on the pad of the cactus are represented by cute white embroidery-style stitches. If you're looking for a colorful cactus to decorate your home, then this is the pattern you're seeking.
Cactus Garden Free Crochet Pattern
I absolutely love this little cactus garden and I'm sure I will try it myself! Five different cactus plants make such a lovely variety of succulents, that are ideal to embellish your home decor, especially when you love having plants around!
Crochet Cactus Coasters Free Pattern
While most of the crochet cactus patterns on this list are amigurumi-style, this one has a different approach. It's a set of crochet coasters, so the cactus is really just a green circle crochet in the round and decorated with white embroidery stitches for thorns. However, you'll then add a tiny three dimensional crochet flower to the top of each coaster. When you stand them up inside of the pot that you crochet, they look three-dimensional as though you've worked with amigurumi. None of the stuffing, all of the design flair.
