The Subscription Box

Indie-dyed yarn, a pattern, and curated notions — delivered to your door. One-time or recurring, your choice.

The Designer

Hi, I’m Geniene

I’m a knitter, pattern designer, and yarn lover based in the Southwest. Prickly Pear Knits is where I share the patterns, colorways, and projects that bring me joy.

My designs are inspired by the bold, warm palette of the desert — terracotta sunsets, sage greens, dusty pinks, and the vivid magenta of the prickly pear cactus in bloom.

Whether you’re casting on for the first time or searching for your next ambitious project, I hope you find something here that makes your needles sing.
