Sling



I've finished couple of slings!
They look like a White, Dark and Strawberry Chocolates, aren't they? Looks yummy and pretty!

Fabric is 50% Cotton & 50% Linen, so its got strength of cotton but also breathable function of Linen. Perfect for sling!
I've put padding on shoulder area so quite comfortable for long time use. Pocket is also attached on the padding, this will be great to put car keys, wallet, mobile phone or whatever small things you need whilst you are doing run-in, run-out duties.


I didn't put any lace on Beige sling because I had a request from customer that she may use this sling with her husband. These were made to fit each customer's body, although if you don't have extreme body size difference between your partner, you can share one sling with him/her.
I made sling each for myself and my husband, but when we go out together I just use my husband's sling. He is 178 cm tall and I'm 163 cm, even we have 15 cm difference of height, because I've got big breasts (I'm not showing off at all, it is because of breast feeding!) I found quite comfortable using bigger sling. This may not apply to all couples, it really depends on each people.

No lace sling is nice and simple, it's great for dads.
If mums want their own sling, I recommend to put pretty laces!
I only use natural cotton laces or tape laces (big flower look lace is called tape lace). This is something I love and laces will be used lot more in future Mintii products.
