Washing Tips

How do I wash my sling?

Cotton and cotton blend slings:  Machine wash warm, tumble dry or hang to dry.
Silk slings:  Hand wash or machine wash in cold with delicate cycle.  Hang to dry.
Water slings/Solarveil slings:  Machine wash cool, hang to dry.

Can I put the rings in the washer or dryer?

To minimize banging, pull a thick sock over the rings.

Do I have to iron my sling?

Minimize wrinkling by not over-loading the machine.  Use a delicate cycle to 
reduce the agitation in the washer.  Remove promptly from the dryer for fewer 
wrinkles.

 Lighter-weight fabrics will tend to wrinkle more.  Just quickly iron the tail to give 
your sling that new look.  Baby's weight will "iron" out the body of the sling.

Will my sling shrink?

Water slings, solarveil slings and batik slings do not shrink.

Cotton, linen/cotton, hemp/cotton slings shrink approximately 2 inches in length.  
This amount has been added to the length during manufacturing.
