What’s black and white and striped all over? And bounces? And rolls? This stripy ball, of course! What child wouldn’t adore her own oversize ball for epic adventuring? Knit in the round with cotton yarn that has the texture of a cozy T-shirt, this ball cover is easily removable and ready for washing. The textile softens an ordinary exercise ball, and the bottom opening in the cover ensures that the ball doesn’t slip, adding a little stability to make the ball less tippy for sitting.

Note: Pattern is worked with 3 strands held together as one.
