I just love pineapples! Edited to give link to pattern.

How many balls did you use? 20 like it says in the pattern? And what was the yardage on the balls?

 

Sorry for the repeated questions, but I'm trying to work out how much I will need, as we don't get the same brands here....

 

Thanks again!

It was probably about 20 balls.. I'll have to check on the yardage.. I'll get back to you.

Wow Kathleen!! I that pattern, and you really did a great job with it. I love pineapples, too. They are super easy and fun, and you don't get bored with them. One week, though? Want to finish up my pinappe poncho for me? I've got something like 5 more rows left, and those are the longest 5 rows of my life. It's taking me forever. I've got to finish it, though. I have some fun fur to put on the hem, so that's something even more fun to look forward to.

ROFL-- Isn't this true of nearly every crochet project.. by the time we're down to our last rows, we want to be finished--doggone it!

<picks jaw up off floor> ONE WEEK!!! You must have alot of free time in order to do that beautiful amount of work! I can't even figure out how to download my pics of my tabletopper from my digital camera to photobucket yet! I am in awe of your speediness.....

Kathleen, wow, that's gorgeous! That's amazing that you got it done in a week!

I love pineapples, too! In fact, every time I find a pineapple pattern book, I seem to find it coming home with me.

 

They can be difficult, tho', depending on the pattern. I'm currently working on a pineapple and popcorn doily using 30 thread...the pineapples are made up of popcorns! The texture is amazing!

 

BTW...I loved the tabletopper. It seems, however, that most of them are round. I have found some square or rectangular patterns (which usually require crocheting billions of motifs that are put together [argh!], but nothing in oval...I love OVALS!)

[shella85222]

That is so pretty... What size thread did you use and what size needle? I cant imagine making one that big... WOW:hook

[yarndiva]

Wow, one week? I wish I had a round table, all's I got is a big oval one and I haven't had the heart to make one.

 

Thanks for posting, you are an inspiration! Maybe I will tackle an oval tablecloth!

Your tablecloth is beautiful. That pineapple pattern is a lovely one. Your work is a joy to look at.

Thanks for reviving this thread!

I've been wanting to try pineapple crochet!

I've only done a little with thread, but I do like it! Now I need to find a smaller beginner pattern.

[vhanna26]

Lovley work. I love pineapples and thread crochet, but I've never made a tablecloth--perhaps I should try this one.

They are beautiful, I also love pineapples any thing. You do beautiful work. Thanks for the site too.
