Pouch Sling Patterns:(The easiest sling style to use. Great for beginners. Simple on-and-off. Sleek style.)
|
 Shown: Rockin' Baby Sling |
Unpadded Ring Sling Patterns:(Adjustable. No padding means both a very small and very large person can wear the same sling, as there's no padding to get stuck in the rings. A little longer learning curve than with a pouch. Long fabric tail.)
|
 Shown: Over the Shoulder Baby Holder |
Padded Ring Sling Patterns:(Adjustable. Padding is good for eliminating red marks on toddler's legs. Padding can make it bulky, though. Long fabric tail.)
|
 Shown: Didymos |
Wrap Style Sling Patterns:(These have a long learning curve, but are wonderfully versitile.)
|
 Shown: Kozy Carrier |
Asian Style Patterns (ABC):(Best for babies 4 months and older. Great for two-shouldered carries.)
|
 Shown: Hybrid Adjustable Pouch |
Miscellaneous Patterns:Make your own hybrid adjustable pouch and ponchos. (These carriers don't fall into the other categories.)

Baby Doll Sling Patterns:Make your own baby doll toy sling! This is a great gift for a new big brother or big sister - they can carry their own baby doll just like mommy carries the new baby. |
A wonderful source for sling rings:Sling rings This is a wonderful site owned by a WAHM (Work at Home Mom) who created it when she couldn't find a source for safe sling rings. *This is not a reselling site; she and her husband have chemical engineering degrees and actually make their own rings. You can't find these quality rings at a better price. Gorgeous and safe.* She has both nylon and metal rings in several colors. |
