Welcome Home Pineapple Jar Cover
"Wouldn’t this be pretty on your table, out on the porch, while the children are in the yard catching fireflies? A welcoming pineapple for your table. You could make several and place them around on your banister, or make them to hang for hooks to light up your night. I love the wrapped DC stitch and the lacey design. Drop a battery operated tealight candle into the bottom and it will throw beautiful shadows all around. It’s the second in a series of three crochet patterns for you to enjoy this summer."

I love projects where I can repurpose things I already have. This pattern calls for a pint jar and I have several that arent safe for canning. The only Special Stitch is a Wrapped Double Crochet, but it doesnt sound that complicated. This would be great for a craft sale as you could sell just the covers and let the customer supply their own jar.
