Those of you on our fan page may have noticed a review for one of our upcoming fabrics - Aeolus Shadow, another one on our plum purple-to-black gradient warp. Here are some of our own photos, and a little information to go with it.
It is 79% cotton, 21% linen, 268gsm. Is has a new cotlin yarn weft that we've only used in a couple of testers before, which is softer than our previous linen blends and needs less breaking in. We've used it in its natural undyed state for this fabric, so it is a bit fluffy on the purple/black side of the fabric, but this will reduce with wear and washing. As we are twiddling our thumbs waiting for this baby and a watched pot never boils we are thinking of popping it on our website tomorrow, probably mid-morning UK time. Although of course, if this baby arrives before then, the release will be in a few weeks.
Like a sandy bay hugs the sea, our woven wraps and slings are designed for you to carry your baby safely and snugly. We work with our local weavers in Yorkshire, England to create soft and strong natural fabrics perfect for baby-wearing.
As a family of artists it is our vision to create beautiful artworks and stylish patterns on our wraps. We design each fabric so the images, flow and space in each pattern take on a completed form when wrapped around you and your baby.
Each wrap is carefully sewn by Juliette who is a very experienced seamstress and babywearer. We also design and sell accessories, such as hats and cowls in the same material to match your slings to wear whilst you're out showing your baby the world.
