Pineapple Lace Blouse


OK, I am crochetting another pineapple pattern! :) This time it's a lace blouse, which comes from a Japanese pattern book 美しいかぎ針編 春夏NO.14. I am using a #2 crochet hook and sky blue yarn bought from online yarn shop of 哞哞毛房. The yarn is pretty thin and creats a shiny outlook that matches perfectly with the pattern! I am very happy to see how it turns out with the pattern, but still am not sure how the blouse would look finally...

The instruction is to connect two pieces of round pineapples to create a blouse model. I am hoping that I could finish the first piece of round pineapple and start the second one in the weekend so that I could be able to finish up the blouse by next weekend...but this is what I hope for, anyway, I'll work hard to follow my schedule! :)




close up~ beautiful pattern!


This is one of the two round pieces. Two were both done on July 11. :P And tonight I'll start the more difficult part---to fold the piece and shape into the front and back side, and also the sleeve.


So here's what I've done so far...one side sleeve is halfway done and after that, I'll have to crochet and make the round angle of the back piece straight, then do the same thing to the other round piece...hugh...hope this could all be done by the weekend!

The pattern looks very nice and the color chose seems very nice as well.Do you prefer crocheting or knitting ? Because your projects are mostly crocheting....I love your crocheting projects.
I used to do some projects in different color for my daughter when she was young. :)
