I have noticed a increase in fake yoga rugs being sold on . Some sellers are even trying to sell "Mexican Blankets" as yoga rugs and unfortunately some people are getting ripped off by this scam. There are certain things you should look for in a Yoga Rug. First thing to look for is the size of the rug, width vs. Length. Real yoga rugs are roughly 2'X6' give or take a couple of inches. The fake yoga rugs tend to have the dimensions of a standard bed blanket 6'X6' this size make for a acword yoga rug and can not be used in a yoga studio. Next is the material, a standard yoga rug is typical hand loomed out of cotton and is preferably organic. Cotton helps to absorb any sweat and provides grip. The fake yoga rugs are made out of wool or very poor quality cotton. This can be dangerous when practicing yoga as you could slip and fall. I hope this helps with some pointers on what to look out for when buying a Yoga Rug.
