Completing of the work

For product dimensions, see Figure 8. Start by making a yoke of 12 “pineapple” motifs. To do this, make a series of arches (see diagram 8)

as follows: * 12 VP, count 5-6 VP from the beginning of the chain and connect C2H*. For the yoke, make 24 arches, close the knitting with a connecting loop into a ring and knit in a circle according to pattern 8a.

Having knitted 2 rows of “pineapples” in height, divide the fabric into the back (3 motifs), front (3 motifs) and sleeves (3 motifs each). Continue knitting the back and front parts in a circle according to the pattern, making increases for the armholes as follows: after 3 “pineapples” on the front, knit a fan of 3 C2H, 40 VP, 3 C2H on each side, thereby expanding the front and back fabric (4 each "pineapple") Increases are necessary to form an armhole, expand the fabric, and maintain the integrity of the design.

Next, knit the front and back pieces in a single fabric according to the pattern, which shows the transition from large “pineapples” (on a stem of 10 C2H) to small ones. Continue working, repeating the pattern pattern, and placing a strip of large “pineapples” in the center of the front and back, but on a leg of 8 C2H. Thanks to this modification of the pattern, the necessary expansion of the canvas is achieved, which you can vary at your discretion.

For example, greater expansion of the canvas can be achieved by introducing additional tracks of small “pineapples” into the pattern. Once the length of fabric you require is knitted, finish the work by tying it, forming a neat scalloped edge.

Now knit the sleeves with a large pineapple pattern in the circle on the remaining stitches + additional stitches for the armholes. Decorate the lower edge of the sleeves with a binding.
