FAQ

About your sling

Your sling is made out of linen, one of the strongest natural fibers. It is non-allergenic, cooling in summer and warm in winter. Linen is the best fabric for a baby’s delicate skin. On top of all that, it is simply beautiful.

At first, linen will be crisp and will need some wearing to become soft. There are many ways of breaking it in such as storing it braided and sitting on it while driving. For more tips on this, please join the Pure Linen Slings Support and Chat group

 

Why a Ring Sling?

The ring sling is a quick way of wearing your baby. Once threaded it can be taken on and off and baby can be popped in and out conveniently. There is no wrapping or buckles involved and it is suitable until toddler age when a stretchy wrap is outgrown.

The tail can be wrapped around the rings, used as newborn head support, a shade against the sun or even a nursing cover

Double vs Single

Both single and double layer slings are perfectly safe to use from newborn up to 15kg.

Single layers are lightweight, easy to manage and cool.

Double layers are a bit more tricky to manage, but offers much needed extra support for heavier babies.

 

What is the weight range for a ring sling?

Newborn up to 15kg can be worn. Please seek medical clearance before wearing a premature baby or any baby under 2.5 kg.
