Below are the basic instructions for
crocheting a pineapple lace motif. You'll find many variations of this
in pineapple patterns. It's easy to crochet and, combined with other
stitches, the results can be stunning.
Step 4: Chain 4 to turn (counts as first treble), skip first treble,
work (chain 1, treble) in each treble across, ending with the last treble
worked in the top of the chain-4.
Step 7: Turn. Skip the first chain-3 space, work (chain 3, single crochet)
in each chain-3 space across. (You will have one less chain-3 space at the end of each row)
Repeat Step 7: Continue to repeat step 7; eventually you
will have a row with only one chain-3 in that row. End off.
Now that you understand how a basic crocheted
pineapple shape is constructed, why not see what kinds of variations
on that you can come up with on your own.
Have fun crocheting pineapples,
Sandi
