Cactus Pattern

Start with a chain stitch of your choice, depending on the size of the cactus. In my case I did a chain 10. Go to the 2nd stitch for the hook and do a slip stitch on the first 2 stitch. The rest, do a single crochet until the last 2 stitches, do slip stitch.

Chain 1, turn the work and slip stitch on the first 2 stitches. Do single crochet only on the front loop all the way. The last 2 stitches, do slip stitch.

Continue in this manner until you come to the length or width that you want. Joint it either with a slip stitch or sew. The 2 ends of the cactus, make few stitches and pull it shut. Do add some stuffing to plump it up.

Refer to the tutorial video for better understanding. The tutorial video is easy to follow, even for beginners. give it a try.
