Pilates Mat Bag



Yeah!  I finished it.  I used Red Heart Collage yarn called Landscape Green and trimmed it in some TLC stash yarn I had on hand.  It's much easier to carry it from car to class now.   I'm happy with how it turned out.  It's a little bit like putting socks on a baby, though.  Do you have any ideas for getting it to slip on better?   Let me know, thanks!

  1. Did the yarn stripe itself? It looks so nice!

  2. Use a bit of cornstarch or baby powder on the rolled-up mat? No, probably too messy. Sorry, that's all I've got! LOL.

  3. Hi Kate, Yup, self striping and very soft. It's 2 ply yarn one green strand and one strand that changes color: mauve-rose to off white to grays.

  4. Love this, Annie! You did such a great job on it. I love the top trim on the ruffles. It's a nice touch.
