The Lady’s Stratagem - A Repository of 1820s Directions for the Toilet, Mantua-Making, Stay-Making, Millinery & Etiquette, Lavolta Press, San Francisco, 2009. Edited and with Additional Material by Frances Grimble.

This pattern appears on pages 445-446.

No needle size or gauge is given in the pattern. Green and orange “silk” is suggested. The pattern does not look exactly like a pineapple but “has altogether the air of a pine-apple” (page 446.)
