Wonderful Wovens

        Greenberries now carries woven wraps by Girasol.  These beautifully handcrafted wraps are exclusive to Greenberries.  The colorways were designed by the owner of Metro Minis in New York City, Bianca Fehn.  We’re proud to offer these limited and unique woven wraps.

        Woven wraps are the most versatile baby carrier a parent can own.  It’s perfect for newborns to preschoolers.  A wrap can be used on the front, back or side, and tied in various styles.  Woven wraps differ from stretchy wraps, like the Moby, because they have less stretch.  It’s this lack of stretchy-ness that allows a caregiver to carry 30 plus pounds comfortably.  It should be noted that there is a learning curve to woven wraps.  They take a bit more patience to understand how the fabric works and moves.  Once a basic carry, like the front wrap cross carry, has been mastered they are a joy to use.

The Girasols we carry are 100% cotton, and have three stripes to make wrapping a breeze.  Currently, we carry three sizes- 4.2, 4.6, and 5.2.  Choosing the right size depends on your baby’s size, your size, and what carries you want to do.  We offer two ways to learn about woven wraps, and which would be best for you.  During our monthly babywearing workshop, you can learn different ways to wrap with a woven, as well as troubleshoot your current baby carrier.  For something more personal, make an appointment for a private babywearing consultation where we can answer questions and spend as much time as you need to learn how to wrap!

Happy Wrapping!
