These stress balls are the fifth pattern in a series I’m releasing in tribute to those suffering from/affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. These pieces feature the Italian flag’s colors in recognition of the nation facing the largest number of deaths from this outbreak, but feel free to make one in your own country’s colors as well! This particular pattern also features a red, white, and blue stars and stripes version in tribute to the USA.

To support makers worldwide in quarantine or stuck at home, all of these patterns will be FREE. However, I do ask that in lieu of the several dollars you might spend on a pattern like this, if you have the means to do so, please instead make a donation of this amount to your nation’s healthcare workers or related organizations in support of the fight against COVID-19.

This pattern contains step-by-step instructions to create your own Tributary Stress Balls. Available in English only.
