Cactus Collection 2

A crocheted cactus never needs watering, never dies, and is always in peak condition. With this collection, you can make 4 different realistic cacti in individual pots, or a beautiful cactus garden arranged in one large crocheted pot. It's the perfect thing to brighten up your window, or to give as an unusual and thoughtful gift. Cactus Collection 2 is an original crochet pattern by June Gilbank, including patterns for 4 different cacti: Micranthocereus, Cephalocereus, Ferocactus (Barrel Cactus), and Opuntia (Paddle Cactus). It also includes full patterns and assembly instructions for both the individual-sized pot pattern and the larger cactus garden pot pattern: - An individual cactus makes a quick and sweet gift - or you can anthropomorphize it with some eyes and a smiley mouth to make a super-cute version! - Two or three (or more) individual cactus pots look great arranged in a line along your windowsill. - The larger cactus garden makes a beautiful decoration - and you'll never have that problem where one of the collection dies and you're left with a big empty space in the pot! **Details:** pattern is 13 pages long and includes over 30 step-by-step photographs and explanations so you can crochet perfect cacti of your own. **Yarn:** worsted weight yarn in at least one shade of green (cacti), any floral colour (flowers), brown (soil), and any colour you like for the pot. **Hook:** US E / 3.5mm **Size:** Individual cacti are approx 3" wide by 4.5-6.5" tall (including pot) Cactus garden is approx 5.5" wide by 6.5" tall (including pot) You can mix and match cacti to create your own perfect cacti garden - and take advantage of the huge savings when you buy [Cactus Collections 1 & 2 together][1]! And/or you can mix and match the patterns with [Succulent Collections 1 & 2][2] to create your own custom garden. *** > ***Please join us*** *in the [PlanetJune crochet designs > group](http://www.ravelry.com/groups/planetjune-crochet-designs) > - you can get pattern support, join crochet-alongs, show off your FOs, > suggest new designs, and chat.
