What you need to know

More than a wonderful plaything, this tactile toy offers other benefits too

This squishy ball by Val Pierce is crying out to be explored, touched, tugged, twiddled with and cuddled – no two panels are the same! There are 12 hexagons, all with individual cute motifs, and 13 bright colours in the version pictured. It may look a little complicated, but it uses easy stitches, so just take it a step at a time and enjoy putting your brightly coloured DK ball ends to good use. Did you know that playing with a sensory ball not only encourages motor skills, but also helps to develop coordination, concentration, colour awareness and more? Maybe we should all have one!

Don't forget to save your PDFs to your computer or tablet device as soon as it has been downloaded.
