Www.gypsymama.com Wrap sizing below is for our gauze and hemp/ silk wraps. Stretch wraps come in standard lengths. Wrap sizing can be a bit confusing - not only do you need to factor in your size and shape, but you need to decide how much versatility you want from your wrap. Some people like to order a few different sizes, using them for different purposes. Some people prefer a shorter wrap, with less fabric to play with, and they don 't mind having fewer tying options. Others like a one-size-does all carrier, ordering the wrap that will offer them the most options and versatility.

I made mine with instructions I got off of this website: mamatoto.org/ Default.aspx?tabid= 63 You basically find fabric that is light and stretchy, you can either get a jersey cotton type material or a stretchy gause type material. The material should be 60 " wide and 5 yards long, then you cut it into 20 " strips, so you actually end up with THREE wraps this way, but you will inevitably get them during while learning to use them, so spares are nice to have around. This website is easier to navigate and has good instructions as well: thebabywearer.com/ Good luck :)
