First Pineapple
Now work pineapples individually as follows:
Sl st in sp, ch 9, tr in same sp, ch 7, skip next sp, (sc in next loop, ch 3) 3 times; sc in next loop, ch 7, skip next sp, in next sp make tr, ch 5 and tr. Ch 9, turn.
Tr in first sp, ch 7, skip next sp, (sc in next loop, ch 3) twice; sc in next loop, ch 7, skip next sp, in next sp make tr, ch 5 and tr. Ch 9, turn.
Tr in first sp, ch 7, skip next sp, sc in next loop, ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 7, skip next sp, in next sp make tr, ch 5 and tr. Ch 9, turn.
Tr in first sp, ch 7, skip next sp, sc in next loop, ch 7, skip next sp, tr in next sp, ch 2, sl st in first sp, ch 2, tr in same sp as last tr. Break off.
Next Pineapple
Skip 3 sps on 21st rnd, attach thread to next sp, ch 9, tr in same sp, ch 7, skip next sp, (sc in next loop, ch 3) 3 times; sc in next loop, ch 7, skip next sp, in next sp make tr, ch 7 and tr. Ch 9, turn. Complete as for First Pineapple. Complete remaining pineapples the same way.
Edging
Attach thread to first free sp on any pineapple, sc closely around. Join and break off. Starch lightly and press.
