What did I make? (and how do I use it?)

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
So baby is now 2 months old, and before he was born, I made a couple of ring slings as well as long stretchy/woven carrier. Turns out I don't love the ring slings (the one-shoulder weight distribution is all wrong for me), but the long wrap is awesome & he spends about 6 or 7 hours of every day in it, and I just made a second one.

I know I got the instructions for this online, and I also saw a series of neat video clips on using it with various carries. Problem is, I can't find the videos any more! I'd like to learn how to do a front facing-out carry with my wrap.

The wrap is about 5 yards long & 20" wide, and is made with two long stretchy ties with about 35" of woven fabric in the center. It's the same width all the way along. Does anyone know (i) what this is called and (ii) where I can see instructions on using it for different carries?

It sounds like you just have a "wrap." Maybe. I might need more coffee, I'm still waking up.

Here are some instructions I found for a front carry. And a video demonstrating that carry.

I hope if this isn't what you are looking for, it has at least gotten you on the right path.

Heh. I guess I was overthinking that one!

The video wasn't the one I'd seen before, but it took me right to it, and yes, just a "wrap."

I know online videos really helped me when I was learning the different carries for my wrap. Good luck!
