Love the look of quilts, but crochet is your craft of choice? Heather from The Unraveled Mitten has you covered! Like the hexagon wall hanging above, this quilt block starts as two-color granny squares, then joins up to form a sawtooth star block with a pinwheel inside.

Bring hexy back with this bohemian wall hanging comprised of hexagons! Because you make each hexagon separately, this is a more portable crochet project. Once the pieces are finished, stitch them together and add some tassels for fiber art you'll love to display in your home.

Combining puff stitches with double crochet discs, this wall hanging is covered in textures and has an under-the-sea look to it. Although it's shown in several colors of Premier Yarn, you could tone it down by keeping to all one color.

The untrained eye might mistake this for macrame, and that's just the look that designer Moriah Smith was going for. Hang the crochet from a piece of driftwood for a beachy look or swap in a more finished board or dowel rod if you want something less rustic.

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.

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.

This is another super simple crochet cactus pattern that's got a big punch of personality. Basically, you just crochet a simple green ball. Then you add a cute, kawaii-style face with sew-on eyes, an embroidered mouth, and dots of pink yarn for cheeks. This crochet tutorial is offered as a free YouTube video.

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.

Use this crochet pattern to learn how to craft a really easy crochet cactus. It's made just slightly more special by adding tufts of white yarn to the body. Place the finished cactus into a terracotta pot to complete the effect of a classic houseplant. People who love amigurumi will find this to be a popular pattern.
