It’s been shown that carried babies are more likely to develop a healthy secure attachment—that special bond between parent and child,” said Kate Hardy, Founder of Trekki. “Slings are especially beneficial in baby’s first three to six months as the soothing pressure and comforting sound of the parent’s heartbeat recreates the environment inside the womb. They can help calm crying and soothe the effects of colic & reflux, whilst the gentle sway of your movement helps baby drift off to sleep. In fact, it’s proven that carried babies cry less & sleep more.” Use chunky weight yarn because I am short of time and wanted to have the additional warmth with level 5 yarn.

If you are making the standard length wrap, you will need an additional skein of each color you plan to use for the fringe. I suggest about 4 or 5 skeins of the white, depending on whether you make the standard or long version. That’s about 440 to 550 yds. Each of the stripes, made up of two rows of the pattern, takes about 55 yds of worsted weight yarn for the standard length, and about 65 yds for the long version.

This means you can “knit” using just your fingers – no knitting needles or crochet hooks necessary. I first saw this idea when a gorgeous crochet pattern started circulating on social media. It looks so pretty – but I don’t know how to crochet! And I’m too lazy to learn how. Once you have all fringe affixed, lay it flat, comb the fringe with your fingers so it all lies straight and use sharp scissors to trip all the fringe straight and evenly and to your desired length Let me tell you a little bit about loop yarn.

Picture this in a deep teal or turquoise to add a little splash of color to fall and winter? Or even a burnt orange to echo the vibrancy of autumn? This vintage pattern from the American Thread Company features a cable design knit in bulky yarn. Pictured project by Edd who added crocheted edging.

If you aren’t familiar with how to affix fringe, there are lots of tutorials online and on YouTube, but here are the guidelines for how I affixed mine Row 1: Sc in 2nd and 3rd chs from hook, *skip next 3 chs, 7 dc in next ch, skip next 3 chs**, sc in next 3 chs, repeat from * across to last 2 chs, ending last repeat at **, sc in last 2 chs, turn.
