Aroha #8 Meridian Wrap

Introducing...#8 'Meridian'

#8 is about ingenuity. The unending resourcefulness of loving parents, regardless of their circumstances. The tireless meeting of varying and various individual needs. The creative solutions. The peace-keeping, the face-saving, and the life hacks.

The number 8 is also associated with luck, and we consider ourselves deeply lucky to know the joy of being a parent in this life. Right now the joyous energy of our children is keeping our days bright and busy, and we feel very lucky to be blessed with the wealth that is a healthy family.

For carrying your little one, Meridian is lightweight in hand and becomes soft and floppy from the very first wash. Woven in 100% fine cotton, this wrap is easy-care perfection for newborns and infants, and in multiple layer carries it will support a hefty toddler comfortably.

When naming this colourway, we thought about how for most humans there are few life changing events as far reaching as that of becoming a parent. It touches every part of life and extends to the deepest depths of our hearts and minds. Parenthood can mean a metamorphosis. A deep and rich experience that isn’t easy to describe, and hard to fathom until you’re living it. For a birthing mother this goes deeper still. The drifting tones of this wrap remind us of these depths. All the waves of learning and shifting tides of life. Layers of feeling, and of meaning.

Every child is like a personal prime meridian. Their arrival clearly marks a separation of their family’s life before and life after.

#8 Meridian will be custom made for you, via an order form which will be available this week in a separate post.
