Do you like to have plants around but do not have enough time for them? Do you want to have a cactus in your office but you are worry of pricking your fingers with it? This cute bunny-ear cactus (Opuntia microdasys) is the solution! Fast and easy to crochet, this cactus will bring joy to your home or office.

The PDF includes step-by step written instructions and visual references and photo-tutorials to help you, and it is available in English and Spanish.

Level: beginner.
You need to be familiar with the basic stitches used in amigurumis (chains, single crochet (US)/double crochet (UK), slip stitches, increases, invisible decreases, back post single crochet; there are photo-tutorials to learn how to invisible decrease and how to crochet back post single crochet with both right- and left-handed versions, if you need them), and with sewing parts.

Yarn and hooks: You can use any yarn weight you prefer, you only have to choose a suitable hook so you can crochet tight enough so the stuffing does not show.
