The Chakra System of the body is a system of energy distribution in the body that helps the fluid flow of life and energy throughout the body, for physical, emotional, and spiritual health. Check out this video about the Chakra System and the Mind Body Connection, with Seane Corn.

The Sacral (svadhisthana) Chakra is the second chakra, located in the lower abdomen above the navel, and is associated with creativity, the emotional body, and sensuality. An open sacral chakra allows us to be open to connection, passion, and pleasure. Its mantra is “I feel.”

Welcome to Stacey Namaste Designs. This cowl is part of my Knitting for Healing series. Trauma can be defined as “Anything that overwhelms our capacity to cope and leaves us feeling hopeless and helpless,” ~Seane Corn, Yogi and Author. This series was inspired in order to provide choice and control for the maker in size, color scheme, design, and patterning. I hope you have fun, and every time you sit to knit this pattern, you can create a new design of your choosing with yarn and color choices.

This cowl was designed using light worsted/DK yarn, Amigo from Hobbii. Feel free to choose any yarn that features the orange color. The pictured sample uses the color Bright Orange (A45). This yarn is an incredibly beautiful 100% acrylic yarn. Sample used 65g or a little over one skein, 215 yds., size 6 circular needle. Gauge is 22 sts, 30 rows for 4.” This cowl is knit in the round using circular needles and a cable needle,. This crown fits an average adult, 9” across (stretchy) and 7” long.

Adjustments: If you would like to increase the circumference, you can add additional stitches to the non-cabled sections. If you would like to add length, you can continue the brim section to be longer. Play with what works for you.
