Crochet Cactus Pattern Notes
- You can choose to follow the pixel graph or the written instructions for each crochet cactus.
- Written instructions are for working from the bottom right corner to the top left.
- Crochet the pixel graph using the corner-to-corner (C2C) technique. Use the traditional method of making three double crochets for each square.
- Chain 6 to start each new row and chain 3 at the beginning of each square.

Crochet Stitches & Techniques
Double Crochet (dc)
- Yarn over & insert hook in next stitch.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop. You will have 3 loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You will have 2 loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through remaining 2 loops on your hook.
Single Crochet (sc)
- Insert hook in next stitch.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop. You will have 2 loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through both loops.
Half Double Crochet (hdc)
- Yarn over & insert hook in next stitch.
- Yarn over and pull up a loop. You will have 3 loops on your hook.
- Yarn over and pull through all 3 loops on your hook.
Corner-to-Corner Method (C2C)
Corner to corner (C2C) crochet is a technique where you crochet “squares” in diagonal rows, starting in the bottom right corner and ending in the the top left corner. Each row is increased by one square. Each square in the graph = chain 3 + 3 double crochet.
C2C Increase
Increases are made at the end of each row. To make an increase you will chain 6, dc in the 4th chain from your hook and dc in each of the 2 remaining chains.
You will have a chain 3 + 3 dc square. This is your first square for the beginning of the next row. Turn your work and join with a slip stitch to the chain 3 space from the last square made.
C2C Decrease
The first decreases for both the width and length will create corners.
To make a decrease, when you reach the end of the row, you will turn your work and slip stitch across the 3 dc’s in the last square made. Join with a slip stitch to the chain 3 space and chain 3 + 3 dc.
Step 1: Crochet each Cactus
First, you are going to crochet each of the four C2C crochet cactus blanket graphs.

Step 2: Join your Crochet Cactus Graphs
After you make each crochet cactus, decide how you want to arrange them. Make sure all of your graphs are facing the right way.
Then, sew the crochet cactus blanket graphs in each row together and sew the rows together (pics below).
Since the graphs will move on you, I recommend you use locking stitch markers to keep the single crochet stitches from the borders lined up.
Now you can weave in all of your loose ends.
Step 3: Add a Border
Lastly, it’s time to add your border!
Join your yarn. I used Bright Yellow.
Round 1: Ch 2, make 1 hdc in each stitch. In each corner work (2 hdc, ch 2, 2 hdc).
