Materials Needed

• Yarn: Lightweight, 100% cotton yarn in golden yellow
• Hook: 3.5 mm crochet hook
• Gauge: 10 double crochet (dc) and 5 rows = 2 inches

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Foundation Ring: Begin by making a foundation chain of 7 stitches. Once you have your chain, join it with a slip stitch (sl st) to form a ring.
2. Round 1: Chain 3 (this counts as your first double crochet). Then, work 15 double crochets into the ring. After completing this round, join with a slip stitch to the top of the initial chain-3. You should have a total of 16 double crochets in this round.
3. Round 2: Start with a chain 3, then work 1 double crochet in the same stitch. For the rest of the round, make 2 double crochets in each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch at the end. You will have 32 double crochets at the end of this round.
4. Round 3: Begin with a chain 3, then work 1 double crochet in the same stitch. Now, *chain 1, skip the next stitch, and work 2 double crochets in the following stitch; repeat from * around the entire round. Join with a slip stitch. You will have 32 double crochets and 16 chain-1 spaces at the end of this round.
5. Continue the Pattern: Continue working in the established pattern, increasing the number of double crochets and chain-1 spaces in each subsequent round to form the pineapple lace motif. Each round should build upon the previous one, creating a beautiful and intricate design.
6. Length of Shawl: Work until the shawl reaches your desired length. It’s essential to try it on occasionally to ensure it’s the right size for you.
7. Finishing Touch: Once you reach the desired length, finish with a round of double crochet stitches to create a neat edge. This will give your shawl a polished look.
8. Final Steps: Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Pull the tail through the last loop to secure it. Weave in any loose ends with a yarn needle to ensure a clean finish.

Congratulations! You have now created your very own Golden Pineapple Lace Shawl. Enjoy wearing your beautiful creation or gifting it to someone special!
