Sorry, I don't know the brand name. I wash them in the washing machine and hang to dry on a rack. It takes a few days so usually happens when I'm going on vacation.

I have the same mat and it's in the same shape as yours! It's a little puffier than most mats and I slice it with my toenails.<br /><br />Thank you for your lovely blog. I spent my childhood in Victoria. The family had a small bungalow on Joseph Street. I visit your blog whenever I need a wee dose of home.<br /><br /><br />Thank you again, happy Easter.

I don't do Yoga but I hope to work through a new book, The New Rules of Posture: How to Sit, Stand, and Move in the Modern World by Mary Bond. It is in the field of Structural Integration. <br /><br />What a wonderful experience for the children! <br /><br />We have no flowers yet in central Canada so I always enjoy the early taste of Spring in the lovely flower photos you feature in your posts. <br /><br />Hope your back feels better soon.<br /><br />Every blessing,<br />Honey BeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-50061705861989161612017-04-13T03:26:03.583-07:002017-04-13T03:26:03.583-07:00What a kind and thoughtful guy who let the little ...What a kind and thoughtful guy who let the little ones climb up into the machine. They would have loved that! Our grandsons were totally captivated by earth moving machines for several years, and loved the TV show Mighty Machines. I love those new pots, and what a lucky win with the strawberry pot. Easter Blessings to you and the family, Leslie.Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685403215601517267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-48039738749861311632017-04-12T14:23:44.773-07:002017-04-12T14:23:44.773-07:00I do yoga at home on the carpet and have never use...I do yoga at home on the carpet and have never used a mat, so no recommendation for you. Love the pots! How wonderful to win that lovely strawberry pot. I have two blue pots I recently planted with blue pansies. I love pansies in the spring and blue being my favorite color I was happy to find blue pansies!Jeanninehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08899506698574749866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-2217921101862339222017-04-12T13:48:45.826-07:002017-04-12T13:48:45.826-07:00I remember visiting my Nana and Papa and playing w...I remember visiting my Nana and Papa and playing with wooden blocks that were housed in a wooden wagon. They were fun to play with because they stayed at N and P's. I have been "weeding" the Mystery section at the library and my back now gets stiff from going to the lower shelves, carrying the books to the Technical Services room and sitting at the computer. I will be doing yoga when I get back. They have Yoga on the Pier at Steveston.<br />The ear plugs are a lovely gift.Madame Là-bashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16703782237948233124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-24400701999176479612017-04-12T13:04:41.819-07:002017-04-12T13:04:41.819-07:00I think the cats look at the mat and think "a...I think the cats look at the mat and think "aha a scratching mat!"<br />The Yoga is really helping me with stress and I feel much calmer and more like my usual self.hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-4861221095951973242017-04-12T13:03:10.717-07:002017-04-12T13:03:10.717-07:00We are very fortunate...feeling very grateful too....We are very fortunate...feeling very grateful too.hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-45191284009501004992017-04-12T10:01:54.017-07:002017-04-12T10:01:54.017-07:00Yes! the little holes picked in my yoga mat look j...Yes! the little holes picked in my yoga mat look just like yours.
