Today, June 21st is international yoga day. Since the start of the pandemic, I’ve been practicing yoga almost daily. This healthy activity doesn’t even feel like exercise to me! I enjoy the physical and spiritual collection of yoga, I feel so light after every yoga session and my body and soul feels so in sync with each other. My yoga routine consists of a light meditation before, a 30-60 minute yoga practice followed by a 10-minute meditation afterward. My favorite online yoga instructors are Yoga with Adriene and Boho Beautiful Yoga, if you’re looking for somewhere to start I recommend their yoga videos.
Anyways, in honor of International yoga day, I’m sharing this yoga strap crochet pattern with you all. I had the idea for a crocheted yoga strap for a while so I’m so excited to finally share this crochet pattern. If you plan on crocheting this yoga strap I recommend you use bulky or sturdy yarn for better hold. I used a worsted weight yarn because that’s pretty much the only type of yarn I have in my collection.
