Prehistoric Spring Sky
When I trained as a Slingababy consultant in 2015, the lovely Sally Sycha (Sling Sally) was in my training group. A few months later when I heard she was launching her own range of woven wraps, I was keen to support her new enterprise and give them a go, especially as 5% of the purchase price from each sling goes to charities particularly close to Sally’s heart.

Bears in Space detail
On arrival, I was immediately taken by the rich, deep colour of the wrap. With the spring skies wrap, the turquoise and blue combination is so bright, almost cartoonish, but the velvety, rich purple of the space bears looks much more luxuriant and mature.

Double Hammock with a 3 year old
I used it for a double hammock while out at a country park with my 3 year old, and despite not being the best wrap job in the world, it felt really solid. It wrapped a double hammock beautifully, with the passes gliding effortlessly over each other, perhaps due to the well spaced space bears (ha!) which provided just a nice amount of grip. I carried my son quite high due to my own physical issues and even after around an hour of walking (and wriggling) he hadn’t dropped down, so it really stayed put. Definitely a “toddler worthy” wrap.
With my 11 month old, I tried a front wrap cross carry (not pictured) which was so easy to tighten without any major effort required to get the passes in place. He actually fell asleep before I had tied it off!

Ruck with wriggly 11 month old
When we tried a ruck on our day out, I again found tightening much less an effort than expected with a wrap of this weight. Despite my 11 month old’s best leg straightening efforts, it felt very secure and the passes held in place. I tied it Tibetan and I often find with this tie off that I get some digging in my shoulders where the tails go under the shoulder straps but because of the softness and the thickness, I didn’t experience that at all.
