faithpa76 Posted October 13, 2005 Oh wow ... that's amazing. I can't imagine making something like that! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mythunderbird Posted October 13, 2005 i have made a angel like that, is not that hard to stiffen the thread. i used a product called stiffy, works really good. you can also use starch as it will also work. but you should not be afraid to try it. i bet you could make it:manyheart Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tampa Doll Posted October 13, 2005 I have made Angels and snowflakes. I have wanted to make that tree, but haven't gotten around to it. Anyway, I use a product called Aleene's Fabric Stiffener & Draping Liquid. With this, if I need to, I can also add water to make it thinner. You can also use Elmer's glue and water. That is suppose to work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mamaoso Posted October 13, 2005 Someone told me to use sugarwater for a stiffener. Didn't tell me about the ants.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dixieredhead Posted October 13, 2005 I used the glue and water mixture on my snowflakes this year. It really does a great job. Just remember equal parts. That tree is wonderful. I'd like to try that sometime myself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paralee Posted May 25, 2007 Wow, that is gorgeous! I have used the glue and water stiffener. It's a little messy, but works really well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MaryPat Posted May 26, 2007 I made this tree and stiffened it with Aeleene's (sp?) Stiffener. It was easy to stiffen. That pineapple pattern is so much prettier. http://albums.photo.epson.com/j/ViewPhoto?u=4250960&a=31466836&p=75105074 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frogsrock Posted June 24, 2007 wow but omg that price tag... personally i couldnt bring myself to spend $16 on a pattern Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Misty.Creek Posted June 24, 2007 The $16 includes the thread, beads AND pattern, which might be a bit easier to swallow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackie b Posted November 19, 2013 That is stunning... how do I get the pattern Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Granny Square Posted November 20, 2013 The original post is 8 years old, so I don't know if it is available ( couldn't find it ), but she mentioned she got it at Herschnerrs as a kit http://www.herrschners.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silverbelle29 Posted November 20, 2013 (edited) Here is a kit on ebay...http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pineapple-Christmas-Tree-Crochet-Kit-w-Beads-11x10-5-/380769729619?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item58a7a4fc53 Also if you do a search on ebay for a "crochet pineapple Christmas tree pattern", the written pattern only is for sale cheaper than this kit.

Granny Square Posted November 21, 2020 I just looked (again) on Herrschners' site, it is (still) no longer offered - that would be the best place to inquire about it. (the original post on this thread is 15 years old) I also looked on Ravelry and didn't find anything close there, either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
