PINEAPPLE SQUARE

Motif

Click Here for Image

This small Square is very nice and delicate if you crochet it with a very thin thread, and in this case it is suitable for a doily (sewing motifs in a rectangular shape, e.g 8*10), or a summer vest. If you crochet it with a thicker thread it can be used as coaster, because it is flat enough.

Size : 10 cm (4 inches) diameter

Material : Pearl cotton # 16, hook 0.75 mm (US steel #10), lilac; you can substitute with Cebelia #40 or equivalent cordonnet thread (but the gauge can slightly vary)

Stitches : ch, sl st, sc, dc, tr, tr cluster (4 tr closed together).

Difficulty : difficult with finest thread, medium with a thicker thread.
