Knitting, Felting & Yoga

There are a few things in my life that have awakened great passion. Knitting is one of them, felting a close follower and yoga keeps all if it prospective. Living on the west coast of Canada, many kinds of yoga are an every day activity for many people. No matter what time of the day you see people walking around with their Lululemon yoga mat. I felt it was time for a more creative yoga mat carrier, so I knitted one with 2 strands of Yarnundyed natural Aran yarn in a simple lace pattern. The new woolen cord helped to shape the base and strengthen the strap. It was so much fun to do! I the felted the bag in the washer, stuffed it with towels to shape and dry and that is how 'Namaskar' was born. Because this yarn is undyed it is possible to dye it with cool aid or other dyes or keep it as it is. Lots of my yoga friends love Namaskar, so it has now become a Pollika knitting kit. The yarn, woolen cord and pattern with felting instructions all together in a green reusable Pollika bag. You can find it in your local yarn store order it in our online shop.
