this is a pattern for a stim toy / fidget toy incorporating pony beads. it produces a flat square or rectangle with beads threaded onto the yarn, which are able to be rolled back and forth. it’s heavier than a typical crocheted item of the same size, and makes a pleasant noise when you roll it between your hands.
the pattern can be adjusted to practically any rectangular dimensions (ie, you can make it as long or as wide as you wish).

it’s pay-what-you-want, meaning it can be accessed for free but tips are greatly appreciated!
