Inspired by the Cabbage Patch stitch from Interweave’s Basic Crochet Stitches, the bold cotton pads of this cactus are topped with little tufts of hot pink scrubby yarn mimicking the magenta fruit of this beautiful food source. Memories of a grandmother’s prickly pear syrup on top of fresh homemade pancakes inspired this one.

These work up quick as a poke and make great gifts! They are cute and fun to use, letting you tackle those stuck-on bits without having to hold an entire scrubby in your delicate crafty hands.

Finished Size: approximately 4-½ x 4 in (12 x 10 cm)
