Split pouch sling tutorial
Dec 19th, 2008 at 2:15pm
 
Here are the instructions for one of my slings. Excuse the mess, I don't know how to post multiple pics.


Start by taking three nylon strings, each 5 meters long and mark the middle. In this case, 2.5 meters.

Bend the braid and forming pairs with all strings, divide into three strands.

Divide the strings, three on each side.
Take a fourth string for the pouch. Find the middle and place it on top.

Each side of the string goes for making one side of the pouch. The string has to go up, down, up, down like the picture.

Stop braiding once you get to the finger loop.

Make a simple knot (one loop should be fine)
Secure the loop. Make sure it’s tight.

Cut to the desired amount. WARNING. Once you cut, there’s no going back. Make sure it’s the right size and that there are no mistakes on the sling.

Grab the tips of the string and rub them into the palm of your hand, making small circles.

You will get fluffy tips, which are very soft and nice.
