Blast "Remix"
Blast Remix. It looks like broken records. Crossed with spin art. Woven into something outrageously cool in a very rock-and-roll sort of way. Who says babywearing precludes you from wearing sunglasses at night?! (Just don't trip and fall : )
Why "Remix"? Blast is something of a throwback design for Bijou, and this rich gray color is achieved in part through the re-use of Blast LP black TENCEL® yarn, mixed in the unique-to-Bijou blend EcoCel with recycled Eco2cotton® and an undyed standard cotton warp in this strong jaquard woven wrap and ring sling.
The pattern of Blast's tiled squares are filled with radiating streaks of color, some solid, and some a lighter tint due to changes in the weave. The variations look great in both bunched and spread passes.
Blast Remix offers rockstar moldability and fantastic drape with interesting nubby texture. This is a fabulous cushy wrap that does not sag with big babes and toddlers. Its significant softness upon first wash and wear also makes it lovely for use with little babies as well.
Eco2cotton® yarn is made of recycled cotton products -- think of the cuttings that would otherwise fall to the floor at a t-shirt factory. What a fabulous idea!
TENCEL® is a fiber made from sustainably harvested trees. It behaves like wool's low-maintenance cousin ... cozy and smooshy in hand like wool, but machine washable.
The color varies in different light. These photos represent the range of looks that Remix achieves, but despite these efforts the color may be different in person than it appears on your screen.
Ring slings are made to order. They feature a floating gathered shoulder, which makes it possible to wear them on either shoulder. Please specify size in your order and expect a two-week turnaround for your custom sling.
Slate SlingRings are used for the floating gathered shoulder on the ring slings.
Woven Wraps
If you do not know where to start, please read this page and also see our infographic for determining your "base" size HERE.
Woven wraps are long parallelograms of fabric. The size indicates the length along one rail (a long edge) as follows (all plus or minus 0.1 meters):
Size 2 = 2.7 meters // Size 3 = 3.2 meters // Size 4 = 3.7 meters // Size 5 = 4.2 meters // Size 6 = 4.7 meters // Size 7 = 5.2 meters // Size 8 = 5.7 meters // Size 9 = 6.2 meters // Size 10 = 6.7 meters
Which size should you buy?
Many people with a baby can do a front wrap cross carry (see the FWCC tutorial here) in a size 6 woven wrap, which means that person's "base" size is a 6. Larger frames, those with larger ribcages or busts, or those with big toddlers might be base 7 or 8 or 9, and smaller frames might be base 5 or occasionally base 4. However, any person can use any size woven wrap.
With a woven wrap, you can wear your baby or toddler in a variety of ways: on your front, hip, and/or back (instruction manual provided) -- and no need to "size up" as baby grows if you have a Bijou! We are also proud that any person can wear any size woven wrap Bijou makes (3 through 9, generally). The size simply determines the carries done by that person with that wrap.
There are hundreds of ways to babywear with a woven. A short wrap is nice for on-the-go. Long wraps are great for reinforcing passes that add support. Medium wraps are versatile; some love them for nursing in a front wrap cross carry tied under bum (see the FWCC TUB How To).
Shrinkage:
During its first bath your wrap will shrink slightly, which is normal. We cut the fabric so that it will shrink to the size that you ordered (within tolerances).
ENJOY! See the included instructional booklet for carries specific to your purchase, find the same instructions at the how-to link above in the menu, or watch video tutorials HERE!
