Pouch sling

[CocoaOne]

Has anyone made their own pouch sling? Are there any patterns you can recommend?

Or, if you bought your pouch sling, can you tell me what features you like/don't like about it?

I'm going back to work soon, and I'd resigned myself to using the buggy to get LO from the car to nursery quickly (5-10 min walk) as the Mei tai would be too much hassle.

BUT - I suddenly realised that a pouch sling would be even quicker to throw on than getting the buggy out and up! So I'm going to make one (made my Mei Tai so I'm fairly confident I could manage a pouch) I'm going to try a pouch at the local sling library as I've never tried one, always dismissed them for some reason.

Thanks in advance

Mine has a little zipper pouch up near my face. It's super convenient for putting your money, house key etc

What about a ring sling? This is a no sew ring sling, looks really simple! https://www.sleepingbaby.net/jan/Baby/no_sew.html

Here's a pouch pattern: https://www.sleepingbaby.net/jan/Baby/tubesling.html
I really like Jan Andrea's patterns and while I haven't tried this one out I probably will sometime soon!

Thanks ladies!

I actually ended up making the Jan Andrea one and it's fab! I'll try and post some pics when I remember
