Liven up your home this spooky season with this quirky Halloween Cactus Coasters pattern by Divine Debris. Though no longer prickly, these crochet coasters include cacti dressed up for Halloween — a ghost, Frankenstein, a jack-o’-lantern, and even a candy corn cactus. They will make fun additions to the table setting, perfect for any Halloween party or just the right touch to celebrate the spirit of spookiness!
Yarn & Tools You’ll Need
You will use Knit Picks Brava worsted yarn as it will give proper weight so that the coasters can be used as sturdy ones, along with a 4 mm crochet hook. Its bright colors also make each design pop and ensure durability.
Crafting Your Halloween Cactus Coasters
The Halloween Cactus Coasters pattern will suit intermediates and those who feel comfortable with the tapestry crochet to develop detailed designs for each cactus character.
The coasters are crocheted from the bottom up in turned rounds. You will work them in single crochet using the diagram which marks all color changes.
Color Variations and Personal Touches
Go for it with color! While the samples feature classic Halloween colors, there’s no prohibition on experimenting with those or adding accessories — working little felted hats or embroidering faces will spruce them up quite a bit.
