Openwork napkin with pineapple pattern
An openwork napkin with pineapple patterns can be crocheted. The patterns and description of knitting will help beginners and experienced craftswomen.
The product will have a diameter of 46 cm.
For knitting you will need:
- 70 grams of thread, preferably cotton, white.
- Thread thickness 325 m per 50 g.
- Hook No. 1-1.25.
The drawing is performed as follows:
- First, you need to knit eight air loops, knit with a connecting table-m in a circle. Air loops are those that are knitted, clinging to one another, regardless of the area of the product. They line up in the form of a knitted line.
- From it 3 air p., and then - 31 columns with a yarn over in a circle, until you reach the beginning. When you reach it, tie with a connecting table-m. Air loops and connecting columns are made everywhere where the beginning and end are connected, in a line through all the rows. A yarn over is a manipulation of placing a thread on a finger, and pulling the next loop through it. Without a yarn over - the thread is simply pulled through the elements of the craft, without manipulating the fingers.
- The next row begins with sl sts with yarn overs that come out of each sl st of the previous row. The sl sts are connected in pairs with two air loops.
- From them come the same columns again. They are also connected in pairs, separating those that stand together on air loops. Pairs are connected with 3 air loops, from the middle one there will come a single crochet. The columns connected in a pair will be finished with the same elements during 8 rows.
- Between pairs, the elements will be connected as follows: where there were 3 loops and a single crochet. thread, from it - 6 air loops, three in one, and three in the other direction, are attached to the column. on the sides. From the second air loop, the middle one between the column in the pair and in the middle, one with a crochet comes out, which are tied together.
- From the top of the connection, knit 8 sts, four on each side. From there, knit a table without a thread thrown over it.
- From it and two adjacent air loops - 3 of the same elements (there should also be four loops in this row to the edges, where the tables are).
- From three columns, there should be the same number of air loops on the sides, 4 each.
- From 3 single crochet stitches, and from the adjacent loops from them, 5 of the same elements, their tops are connected on the sides with air stitches in the amount of 5 in each direction.
- The next row similarly increases to 7 columns and in the sides - 5 loops. Then they begin to decrease: only 5 pieces from seven, from the extreme columns the number of loops to the sides does not change. Then again to three columns we decrease, and to 1. From each row comes out the number of loops in five, from the extreme column (the highest) - 2 chains p-l. Because it is 1 naturally, on the sides - these are 2 chains from one top.
The table without the yarn over is shorter, so the pattern is stretched so that the air loops seem to stretch upwards, rather than going along the sides. - From the columns, which are connected 2 pieces 8 times in a row, then 2 of the same will come out, with a yarn over, outlining the petals. The loops are just attached to them, those that come from 5 columns without a yarn over. thread, those 5 pieces.
- The same situation is repeated, they knit with the table again, in pairs, closing the petal, the pairs are repeated 3 times, on the fourth - they are connected into 1 vertex.
- The outer edges of the petals form new ones - in the form of pineapples. Column. with a yarn over, which come out from 1 top and continue 2 further, are connected along the outer side of the petals with air loops. - 3 pcs.
- From the middle - a table without a thread thrown over it.
- From it - 3 loops to the sides. From the middle loops - again columns (2 between the petals).
Please note that the petals described are those that go in a circle, repeating. - Between two tables there are 5 p-l, on the sides – 3.
- Where there are 5, from the 3 middle ones - one column with yarn over. From those on the sides, from the middle loop - one column without yarn over. thread. From them - to the center - 4 loops, to the edges - 3.
- From the double crochets, knit the same, 2 from each. From the outer loops, which are 3, from the middle one comes out a column without a yarn over. It is connected to the top of the petal on one side, 4 loops, and 5 - to the other. On the other side - the same. And so on around the entire circle. Here the petals end and the outlines of the pineapple begin.
- From the tops of the petals come out st. without nak. From 6 columns in the center come out 2 more of the same. With those 12, from the top of the column, connect 5 p-l (the same thing in the other direction from the center of the pineapple).
- From the table that starts the wall of the pineapple - 2 columns with yarn overs. with threads from the 1st point. From the 12th column in the center - the same columns. They are connected with loops. They are connected to the edges with three loops, between the columns of the wall - 3 air loops.
- Between the columns in the center, where the loops are, the same columns come out, there will be 11 pieces. Then this center is knitted similarly, loops between the columns, from them - again columns, until the number decreases to 1.
- At this time, the wall of the pineapple continues as follows: where there are 3 loops, from the middle one knit 3 sts with the yarn overs, and continue from them with 3 of the same for 4 rows.
- The columns of the wall of the figured pineapple, which come out from 1 point, are connected by the top with air loops to the center, in the amount of 3 pieces. The next row of columns. - 3 pieces. Then 4, again 4, and five.
- The last three columns of the wall are divided, forming the tops of the pineapple, continuing its leaves. This is done like this: the middle column is continued by two of the same, the outer ones - by 1. You will get 4 of them. Two go in 1 direction, finishing this pineapple, 2 - the neighboring one.
- From two tables continue the same 7 rows, which are connected by air loops with the center: starting from what was divided from three, 2 out of four and 7 rows by 2, with the center are connected by five air loops.
- One column of the top continues crosswise with a table-m, which clings not to it, but to the p. on the sides of it.
- Three loops are added to its center from the sides. And two loops from each edge are added to the top of the cross. Cross table - without a yarn over.
- The top of the pineapple is 2 crossed columns, when the first 2 are attached to the place of the next two, and the next two to the place of the first two, you get a cross of two columns. From the cross, 2 st. go in 1 direction, 2 - in the other, forming the outlines of smaller pineapples - (the next elements of the product).
- Between the two middle columns, where four are crossed, - 5 sts. Between the forks of the columns (the corner where the two upper pineapples are connected) - 1 air st. Next row, the outer sides of the upper pineapples (between the pineapples and their tops there are other pineapples): 5 sts are connected. With the middle one - a single crochet.
- From it - to the sides - four sts. From the two middle sts along the table, the same. Between the columns and from them to the sides - 5 loops, a total of 15 in the pineapple row.
- From the central 3 p-l - 5 tables with nak., which are connected to the sides with 5 air loops.
- From these five, two more come out from each, 10 of the same tables, connected to the edges of the pineapple - 5 p-lyami.
- From these 10, one of the same table-u, between which are loops, to the edges of the pineapple from the central pattern, the same number of air loops in each row.
- The outlines of the upper pineapple from two crossed columns continue the rows of two columns with threads thrown over them, in the amount of 8 rows.
- The center of the pineapple is formed as follows: from the air loops that are between the columns with yarns, columns without yarns. threads, 10 pieces. Between them - three p.
- On the middle one, further on, there is again the same column.
- On the next row, there are 3 sts between the posts again, and so on until there is 1.
- The top of this pineapple ends by connecting the two outermost columns with a thread from the shell. Of the 4, only the two outermost ones continue with the same columns that are connected by 1 top.
- Between the crossed columns, where there were 5 loops, is the beginning of the last drawing, pineapple leaves. On the middle p-le - st. without nak.
- From it - 3 loops to the sides.
- On the middle ones - the same column. Between two columns - 5, and on the sides - 4 p-li.
- From the 3 middle rows - three columns with yarn overs, from the outer ones - on the second from the edge (the wall of the pineapple) - a single crochet.
- 3 column with a yarn over is the center, leaves. From the center to the st. without yarn over – 3 loops, from them – to the wall – 5.
- On the middle one there is the same column again.
- In the center, the second row is knitted from the columns. Between them - 1 st, from them to the column - 3, from it - to the edge - 5.
- Where there are 5, the story repeats itself again. The pattern, where 1 column without yarn over. thread in the center, stands on 5 loops in the middle, which to the center. 3 loops, and to the wall - five, continues to the end of the product, on both sides of the center, surrounding the center-leaves.
- From the column in the center the same elements continue, only 2 from the 1st, forming 6, between pairs by loop. Between two columns, which have one root, there is no p-ly.
- Further, these pairs continue with 2 such elements, but between them there is no longer one, but 3 loops.
- From the middle pair comes 6 sts, from the two outer ones – 2 each. Also, with yarns. The number of loops between them is the same as in the previous row.
- These six sts are continued by their brothers, with 2 loops between each.
- Two on the edges - duplicated to the end of the product. To them from the central ones - the same number of sts.
- Further from the st. in the center there are the same elements, but between them there are already 3 air loops. To the outer columns from the center there are also 3 loops.
- From the three loops, those between the columns, come out st. with two threads thrown over, reuniting into 1 vertex. From the outer columns of the center these vertices are connected by 5 p-lyami.
- Further from the st. cent. there will be three sts that will reach the st. without a yarn over that was between the center and the edge of the part of the drawing. There the edge has already ended, and 2 columns of adjacent drawings are connected with five sts, above the top of the pineapple.
- Between the points of joining the columns with two yarns. threads of 2 loops, on which a picot. These are elements that are knitted by twisting 3 air loops into a knot, tying the 2 outermost columns without a yarn.

- You can come up with your own ideas, or you can knit according to the patterns. Different patterns have their own explanations. As a rule, in order not to make a mistake, the explanations that are known to the needlewoman are rewritten. For convenient knitting according to the article, it is recommended to draw a pattern, since you need to knit one by one, but it is written in a different sequence, for easy perception.
- There can be different napkins used not only on the table. Two products are knitted and placed one on top of the other. And at the same time they can be used separately.
- Napkins in the form of paths - oblong. The red craft on white fabric looks very harmonious, especially if it fits into the interior. On old Soviet cabinets and in sideboards, such products give their atmosphere and breathe traditions.
- Most napkins are knitted in a circle, counting the rows from the center of the product. Even square products are knitted from the center, in a circle. Over time, practicing on examples, you can come up with your own patterns for various products.
- There are such types as those connected with relief with different colors. For example, the product "Matilda" is presented in two shades of green, lighter inside, darker outside, on the edge of the colors there are knitted reliefs. As an option - a spiral product, where the petals are solidly knitted in the form of spirals, against the background of perforated openwork knitting.
- An interesting idea is to combine several circles into one flower-shaped product. The circles are inside a mesh base that is knitted between them. By combining the elements of the napkin into one, you can make a multifunctional single napkin, with elements in the form of coasters for various objects.
Examples of openwork crochet napkins. - Napkins can be complemented with relief figures, for example, knitted models of animals. Swans on a napkin, frogs. Made in such a way as if they were sitting on it.
Asymmetrical napkins, in the form of hearts, which are not knitted using identical elements, in the form of petals. This should be more difficult. Or, for example, a craft in the form of a Christmas tree. - You can attach a ligature to the napkin, by which you can hang it, and it is already on the wall, used as needed.
- Craftswomen give such ideas as how to knit a figure in the form of a plant (flower, stem, leaves) and connect the flowers together by the corners. Also make it in the form of candy, and fasten the same multi-colored crafts.
- If the shape is very simple and you can vary the size without losing the similarity of the crafts, you can make napkins of different sizes and a flower, laying them out on the surface.
- It looks very nice when ordinary fabric is complemented with knitting, mainly on the edges, but it can also be in the middle of the piece of fabric. It looks more modern than old-fashioned lace in sideboards, if someone likes it. Knitted elements can be decorated with small crocheted details. These details can be made and scattered near the napkin. It looks very interesting, original and more modern.
The variety of options, ideas and patterns of napkins that can be crocheted is very large today. Openwork napkins in different shapes and with patterns demonstrate the craftswoman's skill and talent to others. The needlewoman can choose ready-made patterns and yarn colors or combine them herself.
