Round Pineapple Doily
 |
I found this pattern in a swedish magazine called "Allers big crafts - album", it was released in 1978. So it's an old magazine! The pineapple pattern is a favorite of mine so I have been itching to make it.
The examples I have here are in a larger needle and yarn than the one the original pattern asks for. That is to make it easier to see the stitches. |
Original description: "A sheer and easily placed doily in a variant of the classical pineapple pattern. It looks complicated to make, but it isn't difficult at all!"

Row 1:
Start with 4 ch. *1 tr, 2 ch* repeat 9 times.
End the row with a slip stitch in the 4th ch in the beginning.
Alternate end:
you can end the row with a dc in the 4th ch, this just means you won't have to sl st at the beginning of the next round. |

Row 2:
Start with sl st to 2-ch (or 4 ch if you did the alt.end.).
*4tr, 2ch*
End the row with a slip stitch in the 4th ch in the beginning.
Alternate end:
you can end the row with a dc in the 4th ch, this just means you won't have to sl st at the beginning of the next round. |
