The double hammock can take a bit longer with a grippy wrap. Gotta pull it a little bit by little bit. I had to try the first couple times with my DH helping me before I got the hang of it.

Here's a great link for breaking in a wrap:

My Bali Breeze is really broken in - like blanket soft lol - but still super grippy. Not sure if an Ellaroo differs as I've never wrapped with one.
Would it helpful if I made an instructional vid on how I wrap with it?

I broke in my hemp indio by washing/dryer/ironing and sleeping on it plus plenty of wearing. It got pretty broken in after a week or 2.

gidge and Starlithome and Willo - Love the pics! Can never get enough of BW pics! So beautiful x

katerdid - Is that your BB wrap in your avatar? I have been thinking of getting a gauze wrap just because of how cool it is but have never wrapped with one. Are they better in a longer wrap do you think?

Yep, it certainly is!
I think length choice would depend on how you are gonna use it. If it's just gonna be something for cooler weather where you'd be just doing rucks and fwcc's then I'd go for shorter. But then again, carries with multiple layers are more comfy and gauze can get diggy if you're not careful. Maybe go for a size in the middle?

Olive, we just took out the insert as well! She looks super comfy in there! Its a lot easier to snap on and off. I love our Ergo and our Ring Sling.

Here's a pic of Ella in the sling.

Great Pics OM and KK!! Never tried a ring sling - maybe that's next for me

Here's Pip while we were shopping for a new sun hat for her. I kept taking pics because I couldn't see her on my back I snapped this cute one and thought I would share. She's in my Vatanai wrap x

Olive - aw, looks comfy in there!
Katie - as always, loving the pic of you two!
Sun- omgosh how adorable!

My 13yr old brother thinks my woven is pretty nifty, so yesterday I helped him out and he wore my son around for a while. LO was really confused as I'm the only one who has ever worn him lol!!
