How to Make a Macrame Yoga Mat Strap! Super Easy!

In this video, I make an easy macrame yoga mat strap to make it easier for Lilli to carry her yoga mat into dance class. I'm so excited that I figured out how to make this strap. It's a lot cuter than the ones you can get on amazon. Handmade things just have more personality! Also, I am pretty confident that nobody else in class will have the same mat strap!! This yoga mat strap is surprisingly easy. All you need are two metal rings and three macrame cord pieces 40 feet long each. ( I know. I thought that was a lot, too, but it turned out to be the perfect length! ) The only knots you'll need are lark's-head to attach to the ring (and cow hitch for the other end. It's the same knot but without the loop), Half-hitch (diagonal) and a wrap knot. I also used a few square knots, but you could definitely do it without them if you prefer. That's all there is to it! Just a ton of half hitch knots. Plus time and patience!! I'm pretty sure you could use this same concept/ pattern to make belts and other straps. There are so many possibilities! What else can you come up with? #macrame #yogamatstrap #diy
