Calin Bleu, Cotton Gauze Wrap (Short, Size 3) (WW53) Check Availability

Overview

Woven wraps are amazingly versatile and beautiful pieces of fabric. There's practice required in learning how to tie them well, but the end result is, for many fans, one amazingly adaptable, plastic-free, reusable item that allow you to carry in a a million different ways, moulding perfectly for weight distribution and comfort.

This Calin Bleu wrap is super thin but really strong. It's made of a strong cotton gauze and for many wrappers is their go-to wrap for hot-weather wrapping. (I'd also recommend looking at the Wrapsody wraps too which are also good).

This is a 'Short' wrap - at 3.2 meters (or wrap size 3 to those in the know) - at this length it's not possible to do a basic beginners' Front Wrap Cross carry, so this is really one for wrappers who have already mastered that in their base size, and are ready to experiment with shorter wraps.  This wrap would be great for a traditional sling carry or many other single-layer carries. You can read more about shortie carries here.
