Materials Needed

HOOK(S): 5.0 mm • US size H

Hook size will vary if you wish to use different yarn sizes for your project. Using an H hook and Parfait Chunky yarn, our project ended about 6 inches tall. If you want to create a smaller project, you can try worsted weight and a G hook or blanket yarn and an L hook. Try it out in all different types of sizes!

YARN: Parfait Chunky; this is labeled a weight 6 ‘super bulky’ yarn, but I consider it to work up more similarly to a weight 5 ‘bulky’ yarn.

75 yds in Sunshine (used for sample)

15 yds in Seaglass (used for sample)

NOTIONS: Darning Needle / Embroidery Thread / Measuring Tape / Polyfill Stuffing / Scissors / Stitch Marker

FINAL SIZE: ~6 inches from top to bottom

Stitch Abbreviations

Special Stitches

Back Loop Only (BLO)

Insert hook into the back loop only of the stitch. When looking at the “v” of the stitch, you will place your stitch only in the side of the “v” farthest from you (the back). Draw up a loop. Yarn over and pull through two loops on hook. This will create a “ridge” on the round of your pineapple.

Bobble Stitch (bobble)

Adding the Leaves

You will now add the leaves to the top of your pineapple. To do this, you will need to join your desired pineapple leaf color to the FLO left by round 19 above. Slip stitch to a loop to join and continue as below.

Round 5: [sl st, sc, hdc, 3 dc in the same st, hdc, sc, sl st] x 7.

Tie off and weave in ends. And that’s it! Enjoy your fun little pineapple.
