How to: #1 Rope Ball
A practical guide to making a ball to add to your cat’s toy collection.
This simple ball uses a traditional Monkey’s Fist Knot. No weight is required in the middle, however you can choose to use a small wooden bead if you prefer.
-
Cord / Rope (3mm macrame rope works well), cut long 1m long
-
Scissors

Always supervise play and make sure that the ball is big enough that your cat can’t swallow it.
I use cotton which is free of plastics and dyes.
