A Pineapple Knot Variation. U

A 42 part x48 bight 6 Pass, Type 3 Pineapple Knot with a varied interweave.

This Pineapple knot variant (pictured above) is built up from a Standard 27 part x 24 bight 3 Pass, Type 3 Pineapple Knot. This being made with three interwoven 9 part x 8 bight Casa Knots, all in one dark colour; Black gives the best contrast with this knot. For instructions and more information on this and other Pineapple Knot Types, a copy of “Introduction to Turk’s-Head Knots” by Tom Hall will be found invaluable. The Interweave is made with three 5part x 8 bight Casa Knots, all in one light colour; White gives the best contrast against the Black strands. Here is the Under and Over sequence for the 4th, 5th & 6th passes of this knot. Please note; the first and last under in each pass marked like U3* & U4* have the strands going under the same parts to finish the pass. The X numbers X6, X8 and X9; are a strand going under several crossing parts at the top and bottom of each Half Cycle. U

Half Cycles will be numbered in Red to help identify the correct pictures to go with the Under / Over sequence. Note: not all Half Cycles have pictures and I hope the pictures I have included for reference will give a good indication of what is going on.

This knot Takes a bit of dressing and does not lay quite as nice as a standard Herringbone weave Pineapple Knot. Please let me know if you find any mistakes in my Under / Over sequence’s. I hope you enjoy making this one as much as I have enjoyed working out the interweave.

During the process of making this document I have discovered other variant patterns for the Pineapple Knot, I will share them as I get time. Take care, Barry ;-)
