Bring a touch of the southwest to your kitchen! This Prickly Pear in a Pot Knit Dishcloth Pattern is the perfect project for any experienced or novice knitter. Featuring a prickly pear cactus in a pot, this pattern provides all the instructions necessary to create a useful and beautiful knit dishcloth. Knitting this pattern is a great way to increase your knitting skills, while adding a practical and decorative item to your kitchen.

The design is not symmetrical, so adjustments may be needed by lefty knitters if it matters about the orientation of the cactus's arms.

The picture is created in garter stitch on a stockinette background. The border is seed stitch, but the pattern is written so that you may substitute a preferred border if you wish.
