The winner of the most favourite pattern survey we conducted on Instagram, is First Touch. This tiny hands design was created using hand prints of our daughter Rebeka. And since all of the FT wraps were sold out – here’s something for you! A wrap, ideal for the whole babywearing period in a subtle pastel pink and grey yarn colour combination. It’s made of 100% cotton with GOTS and OEKO TEX. cl.l. Certifficate.
Our FT wraps are soft right after the initial wash, they don’t require any special care or ironing and are very easy to wrap. Despite their 300g pre-wash weight, they come in medium thickness, are ideal for newborns and will be great for tiny walkers as well, when tied in layers.
FT Lullaby has been weaved in limited quantity, just like all our other wraps.
Few wraps of First touch Lullaby will be available on our webshop www.yakoyako.com tonight.
Recommended care instructions: 40°C machine wash, using liquid detergent. Tumble dry on cotton cycle, steam ironing. The colour permanence of our cotton wraps allow for the wrap to be machine washed with your white load.
We founded the yako yako brand because we believe in babywearing and its benefits.
The idea came up during our stay in Sweden where we live temporarily. It is the most inspirational country for us, but the major muse is our daughter Rebeka. She is also the author of the first design – the handprints on the wrap First touch were weaved according to her hand prints taken in her 4 months. The name “yako yako” has been derived from her first sounds or words she made while sucking a pacifier.
And who are us – mother Martina, her other ME and Rebeka’s dad Daniel, his mother Anita, the absolvent of textile academy, artist and interior designer living in Sweden.
Behind the graphic design of yako yako is Peter, a former graffiti artist and founder of graphic studio profigrafik.sk. He follows a motto: “Less is more and more is less”.
