Girasol Rainbow Baby is a unique artisan piece that is handwoven on traditional looms in Guatemala. Designed for me by the amazing Kalleigh Designs, this is a true rainbow made to celebrate the babies that bring light and color back into our lives after a loss. And it’s just a stunning rainbow to wrap any baby!
This is woven with a red (rojo puro) weft. Weft refers to the threads woven through the width of the wrap and can affect the hue of the rainbow stripes. Rainbow Baby is woven with a twill weave which means the weft is very subtle and the solid rainbow stripes are plain. It means the colors of the rainbow are bolder.
RAINBOW BABY SLING BAG
You can also choose to buy a bag made from the Rainbow Baby fabric. It is a roomy bag to fit everything you need and can be worn cross body or on one shoulder.
The strap uses sling rings so it’s adjustable to your perfect strap length.
Girasol’s sling bag is a wonderful alternative to the traditional diaper bag for all parents. Incredible space to take everything with you with room for diapers and clothes, wet wipes, water bottles and much more. There are no hard straps and pinching buckles.
The bag has two inside pockets that close with a zipper: one is 26 cm wide, the other 16 cm. There is also a compartment for a bottle. The bag can be closed with a button, which is covered with the matching fabric, and a loop.

Girasol Rainbow Baby is easy to use and care for
This wrap is 100% cotton so it is easy to care for and does not need babying. The Girasol Rainbow Baby wrap can be machine washed, may be ironed and occasionally – if haste is required – even dried in tumble-driers.
Girasol Rainbow Baby– different color rails
Because of the rainbow stripes, Rainbow Baby makes it easy to keep track of your rails – meaning that you always know which side of the wrap is which and can tell if it had become twisted.
You can wrap with either the Reds on top or the Violet, and can see whether the wrap has been twisted by whether that color remains on top as you bring it around your body. This helps you get a smooth and even wrap carry that will stay comfortable for hours with even heavy toddlers!
Woven Wraps Compared to Other Baby Carriers
Woven wraps are the best way to carry your baby close from newborn through toddler so you never have to size up and they never outgrow it!
They are always a custom fit so there’s no adjustments when a different caregiver needs to use it or when your baby grows. No attachments or accessories, no buckles or weight bearing seams – just beautiful hand-woven fabric for the most comfort and versatility.
We originally planned to go on a journey in Central America for 6 month, but it grew into a 2 years stay.
There remains among us a lasting affection for the region and a special loveof the Indians of Guatemala.
We started selecting cloth, textiles and handicrafts on the markets of the Guatemalan highlands to sell them in Mexico and later in Germany.
Our shop in Berlin opened 1984.
Through our continous stays in Mexico and Guatemala, we developed friendly relations to the families of the weaver and artisans.
The collaboration with the artisans is based on fair trade with the guarantee of continous orders.
