Woven wraps

Woven wraps are lengths of fabric woven specifically for the wearing of a baby. They come in different sizes to allow for different carries and different sized parents/babies. Whilst they do have the steepest learning curve out of all the carrier types they also offer the most versatility and (once learned) the most flexibility. You can do front, hip or back carries with them and can use them from newborn to school age and beyond if you wish. The ones currently in our library are:

Girasol flamenco toledo – size 2

A gorgeous 100% cotton woven wrap from Girasol. This is just one of a whole multitude of different coloured an patterned wraps that Girasol offer but they are all soft, snuggly and supportive. This size wrap is perfect for those already familiar with wrapping who would like to try a shorter wrap for different carries on front, hip and back.

Oscha marina fade – size 4

A beautiful graduated wrap from the sought after British weavers Oscha, this is a gradation woven where deep blue cotton fades to shiny ecru linen. This size wrap is perfect for those already familiar with wrapping who would like to try a shorter wrap for carries on the front back or hip. 

Bought with slingmeet contributions at a bargain price from Hannah.

Easycare 01 – size 5 (4.2m)

This is just a beauty! Gorgeous eye-catching rainbow; this stunning wrap is soft, buttery but oh-so supportive. It is suitable from birth to 3 years plus. The size means that it would be good for carries requiring a little less length or for more petite/shorter parents instead of a size 6/4.7m.

Calin Bleu gauze wrap (Cream)

A very light and summery cream coloured gauze wrap. This is lovely and thin and airy and ideal for newborns through to older babies. This won’t offer as much support as the baby gets older as the above wraps but is a wonderful light option for warmer months or just for those of us who prefer a thinner wrap. 100% cotton.

Didymos Forget-me-not – size 6 (4.7m)

A beautiful 100% cotton woven wrap. It is double-faced with one side forget-me-not blue and the other an aquatic green. This is a thin-medium wrap ideal for average height/build parents for babies from birth to preschool age.

This is stunning, a gorgeous and sought after rainbow, it’s stripes make it ideal for learning as they are a great visual tool for tightening. It is suitable from birth to 3 years plus.

Storchenwiege Inka – size 6 (5.2 m)
