Lending Library: Medley Woven Wrap

My Kindergartener helping model the Medley woven wrap.

This Medley woven wrap comes to our library via our parent organization of Babywearing International.  Medley wraps are no longer in production but wear similarly to other broken twill weave wraps such as Girasols – it’s a thinner weight and easy to wrap with.  Our Medley is a size 6 so a great size for anyone to do multiple different carries.

Please join us at a meet up to try out this carrier and others in our growing offering of library carriers.  All of our library carriers are available to members for month-long check out as well!

Check back for more action shots of our Medley woven wrap soon.  If you have one you’d like to share with us, please let us know!

Lending Library: Cari Slings “Cardiidae Cuacao” Woven Wrap

This addition to our library came via a generous donation from Sarah at Cari Slings – thanks Cari Slings!!  Cari Slings is a NC based wrap company whose wraps are manufactured here in the US.

3.5 year old in Cari Slings Cardiidae Cuacao.

Caridiidae Cuacao is a size 3 – great size for doing a variety of front, hip, and back carries for any age.  This particular wrap is fairly dense with a nice texture to it.  It’s also on the wider side so a nice wrap for rucking bigger kids.  And the color is just perfect!!

Lending Library: Colimacon & Cie “Miel & Malice” Woven Wrap

Yup, that’s a 5 year old in a front wrap cross carry in our Colimacon & Cie!

We are super excited to have our first woven wrap in the lending library – a size 6 (4.6 meter) Colimacon & Cie “Miel & Malice” Woven Wrap!!

A big thanks to Bean Tree Baby for the generous donation!  Bean Tree Baby is Connecticut’s own baby carrier and cloth diaper store – check out their website for all sorts of goodies.

As you might guess by the name, Colimacon & Cie (or C&C as it’s commonly known) is a French company.  Their Miel & Malice wraps are made of 100% organic cotton and are available in a rainbow of beautiful colors; the wraps have blunt ends (as opposed to the tapers many wraps have) and have different colored stitching on each rail to assist in wrapping.  These are fantastic “work horse” wraps – they can take a beating, work for newborns to toddlers, are sturdy yet not beastly – really a great choice!  And even better, they are priced a bit lower than many wovens making them a great bargain!

Our C&C Miel & Malice is a size 6 (4.6 meters) and a vibrant orange-yellow.  Size 6 wraps work for pretty much everyone in one carry or another and are a great starter length.

Come try ours out at a meet up!  Or, if you’d like to buy your own, you can check out the selection at Bean Tree Baby or a number of other online retailers.
