Kawaii Yoga Strap DIY

I’ve been working out more and have two yoga mats, one of them I lost the strap for and found a cute way of upcycling a scrap of lace I had.

Here’s the strap I sort of copied to make mine

I wrapped the elastic around the yoga mat to get the elastic length, then I laid my lace against the hanging part of the strap to get that length.

I hand stitched the two loops here.

I used a blanket stitch to keep it from fraying.

I sewed a square of stitches to join the lace and elastic, on the side of the raw edge of the lace I used a blanket stitch, and I used a backstitch on the other sides of the square.
