Topic harini.. baby carriers...
subtopic: Wrap conversion.
So firstly, kena define wrap....
woven wrap to be precise ..woven means wrap yg tak elastic...
wrap ni just sehelai kain panjang....
can be 2.5 meters to 7 meters...
depends on ape ko nak buat ngn wrap and size badan ko..
for me, I would do 4.5 meters untuk longest carry requirement (banyak nak lilit)...
or people use 2.7 meters for rebozo carry (ikat cam kain batik lepas, 1 shoulder carry)
wrap ni kain yang ditenun khas untuk carry babies...
ade banyak jenis... ade linen, cotton, silk, hemp, wool...
ade campuran 50%linen and 50% cotton.. 40% linen... 30% silk.. etc
the possibilities are endless..
also cara tenunan pon berbeza....
pattern aa .. diamond weave... indio weave etc
membuatkan perasaan pemakai rase berbeza...
so far yang aku tau ramai yang menyimpan and mencari Vatanai - pamir..
There’s a Czech company, Vatanai, that makes a particular wrap (Pamir) that is handwoven by one elderly woman (every one ever created was woven by this one artist) on one very old loom. Because this is the only way these particular wraps come to be, they are very, very limited, and the runs are not regular because if she is unable to weave for any amount of time (injury, illness, etc), production stops (Pamir is currently out of production). There is quite a bit of buzz about the magical wrapping qualities of Pamir in the babywearing community, and therefore these wraps are understandably a bit hard to come by and the prices are rather higher than retail. There is only one vendor in the United States that carries Vatanai. The retail price for Pamir is around $200, though they can regularly be seen resale for around $800 on the babywearing forums or ebay.And only 5 made per year :- http://slingomama.blogspot.com/2011/03/vatanai-pamir-interview-with-maria.html
even with pamir, each one akan rase berbeza with the next one (so I am told laa)
Didymos ni pulak kompeni german yang buat baby wrap.. suka buat limited edition wrap....
One of the Fall 2008 wool wrap releases from Didymos, a German manufacturer of wraps (or Tragetuecher), has become very popular and sought after for both the purported wrapping qualities and the color combination. It is now fetching 2-4 times the retail price. Didymos also wove a few 50% silk blend wraps. Their 50% silk indio was much more limited than their 30% silk indio (both LEs) and while the 30% blend regularly brings about $200 in resale, one of the 50% blends was just sold at auction and got $2,000!
So you see, wraps yang limited edition memang sangat MAHAL NAK MATI !
Anyways... harini nak cakap pasal Girasol wraps....
sebab Girasol ni sangat sesuai nak buat conversion...
aku suka girasol wrap especially Rainbow wraps sebab ianya sangat colorful !!
Rainbow pon ade banyak jenis Rainbow... earthy rainbow, snow rainbow, Night rainbow, mamami rainbow... Xela Rainbow and many many more!
Remeber this?
Sold to a special mama who I know loves it..
and doesnt really churn her stash on a whim...
(but she might buy more stuff on a whim lol)
Anyways wraps ni memang best bila diconvert....
wrap punye texture are soo awesome! lembut and supportive...
(usually, depends on what wrap)
Ape maksud convert?
Means it no longer jadik wrap...
