Really Jordan, you are so awesome! Also, I LOVE the way you carry your wrap. I just bunch mine up and throw it in the diaper bag or on the floor of the car. LOL! I will reiterate what you have already said in regards to comments and questions. The wraps are 5 yards long, but the woven wraps are wider than stretchy. 20" is great for a stretchy because, well, it stretches. Wovens need to be 25 or wider. But not more than 28 to 30 AT THE MOST.... (cont.)

@RideWithMomma Your welcome : ) You should totally let me know how the dying goes with your friend. I would need step by step directions! lol

Hey! I am hoping to get a moby wrap for my baby shower, and was planing on making a second by using it as a pattern. Do you think I could use the moby as a pattern for a woven wrap? Considering what you have said about the fabric differences between the two?

Also really enjoy your vlogs!

@ipinkyou Here are the dimensions of the wraps that the lady where I got mine makes them: They both are 5 yds long and her woven wraps are 25-27 '' wide and her stretchy wraps are 20'' wide. So if you were using the stretchy wrap as a pattern for a woven wrap I would just make the woven one wider. Other than that then you should be able to use it as a pattern.

@carleighsmommy thanks : ) The woven wrap is perfect for older babies. Jayden is 2 and weighs about 24ish lbs and I can still wear him with perfect ease : ) I have a friend that has an 8 month old that I babysit often and it works WONDERFUL for her too. I love it.

@RideWithMomma we just got our mei tai and have been practicing, the back hold is the one I really want to learn. I love the pictures of you and your baby on your website!

@nannerskins What carry are you talking about?? I would love to find out!!! Usually with front carries you can sort of pre-tie, put baby in, then tighten up and finish tying. But, if there is a full-out pre-tie carry with a woven, I really want to know!! :-)

@elisam34 I totally understand!! I have a "Kozy" brand Mei Tai, which now that my son is pushing 2, and has been worn from birth, sometimes works better when I need to wear him, but he is uncooperative. LOL (I talk a little about why I went from that to wraps on the "woven" page of my website if you are interested.) Happy babywearing!

because any bigger and you will be dealing with WAY too much excess fabric.  The comment about dying it.... GO FOR IT! I actually have a friend who is planning to dye hers in her bathtub. The fabric is completely unbleached & un-dyed, so have at it. Then let me know how it works out. LOL! (Other comments I will leave to the respective commenter.)
