All you need are scissors and the ability to cut fabric in a straight line. Its really that simple! The secret to a comfy wrap is the fabric. You\u2019ll want to look for fabric that is \u201cinterlock\u201d this basically means that it is a stretchy, knitted fabric that is made in such a way that the edges do not fray. As the edges of the fabric don\u2019t fray, this wrap does not require any sewing skills in order to create it. Really, it is incredibly simple!<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0.5em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-left: 0px; font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;\">.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 21px; margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; color: #657e35;\">How to make your own moby wrap:<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: normal; font-size: 14px; border-collapse: collapse; color: #485a26; font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">You\u2019ll want to get 5-6 yards of interlock fabric.\u00a0 Each batch of fabric can create 2-3 wraps.\u00a0\u00a0 You will want to cut your fabric into long strips.\u00a0 I folded the fabric like a hotdog.\u00a0 The width of each strip needs to be a minimum of 16 inches wide (I have some as wide as 25 inches \u2013 but they are more bulky).\u00a0 I laid my fabric out on our couch to help contain the yardage as I cut them.\u00a0 Viola!\u00a0 You now have 2-3 moby wraps!<\/span>..<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-3487\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/2011\/quirky-momma\/moby-c\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3487\" title=\"moby-c\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/moby-c-286x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"286\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/moby-c-286x300.jpg 286w, http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/moby-c.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 286px) 100vw, 286px\" \/><\/a><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-3488\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/2011\/quirky-momma\/mobyb\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3488\" title=\"mobyb\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/mobyb-300x252.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/mobyb-300x252.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/mobyb.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-3489\" href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/2011\/quirky-momma\/mobya\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3489\" title=\"mobya\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/mobya-238x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"238\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/mobya-238x300.jpg 238w, http:\/\/www.wheelchairmommy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/07\/mobya.jpg 397w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 238px) 100vw, 238px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>How to wrap your baby:<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"480\" height=\"390\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/XKCkag6o7Mw?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/quirkymomma.com\/2010\/make-an-infant-moby-wrap\/\">You can see Rachel&#8217;s Original post HERE on her awesome Preschool Activities Blog.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I met Rachel at Bloggy Boot Camp &#8211; Austin, back in October.
