    Cactus Knitting Challenge Pattern and Supplies List

    Cactus Knitting Challenge Pattern and Supplies List Supplies • Some green coloured yarn – you don’t need a lot of it (any shade works.) • Pink, White, or Purple yarn (about 1m) for making flowers on your cactus (if you like.) • A set of double pointed knitting needles (minimum of 4), smaller is better! Size 3.5 or 4 works well. • Scissors • A yarn needle for closing/finishing your project. • Some batting, an old sock or two that have lost their mate…or any scrap fabric or pillow fluff from an old pillow. • Ceramic pot, old coffee mug (espresso works well,) or another small container. You can always bring out the acrylic paints, glitter, or other craft supplies to decorate it if you like. Be sure to decorate it before you glue the cactus inside… • Some rocks, glass stones, or other heavy items to give the plant-base some weight. • A glue gun to attach your cactus to the base and secure your plant-base weights. Basic barrel cactus pattern (You can look online for other patterns depending on your skill level and/or the style of cactus you want.) 1. Measure the diameter of your plant pot/base.

A chapkan is a type of kaftan, worn by women and men, widespread in Azerbaijan, Iran, North Caucasus Turks, Turkey, and central Asia. The patterns on this chapkan reflect the fabrics and embroideries of the eighteenth century. Inside the silver contours, the flowers decorated with silk thread are called “Afshar flowers.” The Afshars are one of the ancient Turkic tribes. They settled in the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan, Iran, and Turkey.
