Yoga for Knitters

Channel info

We love knitting for hours and in order to do that we find that yoga movements, breathing techniques and meditations enhance our knitting so we are pain free in our body and mind. Explore these short videos to add yoga to your daily crafting life. Namaste. I am not a physical therapist or a doctor of any kind. If you have injuries be sure to consult a doctor before attempting any of the practices in these videos.
