I’ve wanted to make a pouch sling for a while, but I was too lazy to get my act together and figure out the steps that don’t get written into the free online tutorials I’ve seen. So I jumped at the chance to test out this pattern, and I have to say I’m pleased with the results!
I followed the pattern exactly, apart from adding topstitching. Aside from the sloppiness/awkward thread color of said topstitching (I shouldn’t try to sew with a 15-month-old on my lap) I’m very happy with the results. The instructions were super easy to follow, and I hope to make more of these for friends and family!
You can order the pattern for $5 from the loveseptember etsy shop. If you don’t sew, she sells ready-made pouch slings.








Thanks for the shout out!! :) I’m going to be needing pattern testers again for my reversible skirt patterm…when I finally get around to writing it that is. :) I’ll be sure to let you know when it’s done to see if you’re interested in testing it!!

That is so cool! I love the inside lining too so you have too fantastic pouch slings in one. The only slings I made were a no-sew wrap and a no-sew hip sling. Yours looks so professional.

I think it looks great, and I bet your baby will love it too! Looks very comfortable!

:) Your pouch looks great! I made a pouch sling once upon a time based on a free tutorial by < HREF="http://www.sleepingbaby.net/jan/Baby/" REL="nofollow">Jan Andrea<>. I made a mei tai with one of her tutorials too. I got a lot of use out of both carriers. It’s one of those things I wish I had discovered when I had my first child, but instead only got to enjoy with my second.
