Read the user manual carefully before you start using the carrier. You can also watch some video tutorials on Youtube.
Merino wool is a good material for baby wraps. Wool is breathable and heat regulating. Wool keeps the skin dry and warm while absorbing the moisture from the skin. The Pitsi fabric is diagonally elastic, which means that the sling provides optimal support for the child and feels comfortable for both the wearer and the child. This wrap works great in hot and humid climates. And it feels just as comforting on chilly autumn and winter days.
Kapok is a very light plant fiber with a hollow structure. 80% of kapok fiber is air! Kapok is spun with organic cotton which strengthens the yarn. Kapok makes the fabric more porous and breathable, and it is also thermoregulating. Due to its lightness, the percentage of Kapok in the total weight of the fabric is low but the percentage in volume is higher. Lightweight and slim wrap is lovely for newborn babies and supportive enough for toddlers too.
The word "Pitsi" means lace in Finnish. The Pitsi pattern reminds us of the old hand-spun delicate lace pattern. The Pitsi weave is a complex blend of twill and tabby weaves that create the unique structured, porous and comfortable weave. After the first wash, the fabric will fluff up and reveal the unique texture.
Here's how to care for your Vanamo wrap :
Machine wash in cold water (30 Celsius) with wool program or delicate program, hang dry, iron on low heat. Iron while still slightly damp or use steam. NO tumble drying!
We recommend that you wash the baby wrap before you start using it. The wrap becomes softer and easier to tie after washing and ironing, and the fabric gets its optimal structure and density. Each baby wrap has a little extra length to shrink.
