CAN I BUY THOSE BLANKETS?
You sure can!
Often there is often a significant bulk discount rate. You’ll probably use up to 6 eventually in your home practice, but they also make great gifts or household blankets for your couch or car.
For students in the US, check out the blankets at: Ramatex, YogaAccessories, and YogaLifestyle in other locations, you can find similar by searching the internet for plaid or brushed plaid blankets.
You can also access thinner blankets such as lighter cotton Mexican blankets, the wool Iyengar style yoga blankets or army blankets – you simply double them up: 2 of those for every one of our plaid ones.
You can do the Pendleton Wool Blanket for natural fiber and more high-end. They are a bit harder to handle, being heavier and not quite the ideal thickness.
Blanket Care
Use COLD water to wash {a 1/4 cup of white vinegar can help neutralize any odor} and HANG dry – do NOT put in a dryer even on “no heat” or they will be ruined.
