About Marla
Expertise
I have crocheted many doilies, I enjoy working with crochet thread. I have crocheted numerous afghans. But I have little to no experience in hairpin lace, or the afghan stitch. If you have a question pertaining to a pattern in a magazine, book or leaflet, please include the name and # of it, and the page or pattern #. There is a slight possibility I may have that pattern, and can refer to it. Although I have crocheted sweaters and slippers,I don't feel I have done enough of them to really give good advice as to assembling the pieces, but can give advice on the type of stitches.

Experience
I have been a crocheter for almost 30 years.

Question
QUESTION: Marla,

Continuation of coffee-table topper.

Looks like you are also getting the same things. Sure let me know once done.
Even I use to mark in a pencil where am I.

One more thing can you just let me know after the 1st level of 10 pineapples how many pineapples you have started in the next level from Rnd 15 next level of pineapples start with the space shells in between them.

Thanks,
Anitha.

ANSWER: Hi Anitha!
It looks like I have six started pineapples.

QUESTION: Thanks Marla for imeediate response.

Even i have got 6 pineapples (3 pineapples, 2 shell spaces, 2 pineapples, 2 shell spaces, 1 pineapple) but they are not in proper order i think. I had gone thru all Rnd once again and found that there was something wrong in Rnd 15 in the instruction. trying to fix it.

any how Thanks once again and let me know once you are done with this.

Thanks,
Anitha

Answer
Hi Anitha!
We are not the only ones. I went to google and did a search using this:
Crochet AND mistake AND "coffee table topper".  I got the website "crochetville", and on the message board, someone mentions a mistake on rnd 19, but I think the troubles start sooner than that. It may be worth a look. Those 2dc ch 5 and 2dc are out of sync with the 3-shell groups. And your are right, there are some pineapples missing in the doily instructions. I'll try to take a look at it, too. I will be going out of town this weekend, but I will try to get something accomplished with this before I leave.

Hi Anitha!

Some more info: using that above website, there is an address that I copied and pasted into this letter:   http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2621896290067722669ZTsaWD. It shows the entire doily, and how it looks from a birds eye view. It shouldn't be too difficult to figure out with this picture.
