50 Fabulous Pineapple Crochet Motifs (Leisure Arts #4864) shows the versatility of the beloved and beautiful pineapple motif, which has been one of the most popular crochet motifs for well over 100 years. In these designs by Jean Leinhauser and Ferosa Harold, the crocheted pineapple turns itself into a peacock, a Christmas tree, an owl and many other unusual designs, as well as appearing in a variety of shapes.
