The ball with black pentagons and white hexagons is still the image of football, even though official match balls have changed a lot. Our chart sets it on fir-green grass, in just three colours.
The design is 14 stitches by 14 rows. The black pentagons are suggested by blocks of a few stitches: do not chase exact geometry, the eye rebuilds the ball from a distance.
It makes a coaster for match nights, a patch for a sports bag or a blanket square for a young fan's bedroom. Swap the grass for your club colours to personalise the motif.
