Please read once fully before starting 🌸


🧢 MATERIALS (BEGINNER-FRIENDLY)

Choose light yarn so you can see stitches clearly.

  • Yarn:

    • Sport (No.2) or DK (No.3)

    • Cotton or cotton blend is best for pineapple lace

  • Hook: 3.0 – 4.0 mm (match yarn label)

  • Scissors

  • Yarn needle


πŸ“˜ CROCHET ABBREVIATIONS (US TERMS)

Please keep this list near you:

  • ch = chain

  • sl st = slip stitch

  • sc = single crochet

  • dc = double crochet

  • sp = space

  • ch-sp = chain space

  • rep = repeat


πŸ“Œ VERY IMPORTANT NOTES FOR BEGINNERS

  • Pineapple patterns are made with chains and dc only

  • The shape grows gradually, do not rush

  • Count chain spaces, not stitches

  • If fabric curls → use bigger hook

  • If fabric waves → use smaller hook

  • This pattern repeats row by row


πŸ”— FOUNDATION CHAIN

Chain a multiple of 6 + 1

Examples

  • Small sample: ch 31

  • Runner: ch 181

  • Shawl panel: ch according to width


🌟 ROW 1 – BASE SETUP ROW

This row prepares spaces for pineapples.

  2. Ch 2, skip 2 chains, dc in next chain

πŸ” PATTERN REPEAT

To continue the design:

  • Repeat Rows 3 to 8

  • Each repeat creates new pineapples


🌿 OPTIONAL EDGE (BEGINNER SAFE)

Simple Clean Edge

  • Sc evenly around

  • Corners: (sc, ch 2, sc)

Decorative Picot Edge

  • Sc, ch 3, sl st into same stitch

  • Repeat around


πŸͺ‘ BLOCKING (VERY IMPORTANT FOR PINEAPPLE)

Pineapple lace must be blocked to look beautiful.

  1. Lightly wet or steam

  2. Stretch gently so pineapples open

  3. Pin edges and tips

  4. Let dry completely

✨ Blocking transforms your work!

🌸 BEGINNER TIPS (PLEASE READ)

  • Use stitch markers for pineapple centers

  • Count chain spaces carefully

  • Practice with small swatch first

  • Don’t pull chains too tight

  • Relax your hands 🧑


🌈 EASY VARIATIONS

  • Elegant look → use mercerized cotton
