1
Bring your
DIDYMOS
sling
around your waist from
behind with the middle
marker in the middle of your
back.
2
Cross the tails in front
of your chest without
twisting them and …
3
… bring them over
your shoulders to your
back.
4
Cross the tails again
and bring them to your
front.
5
Now bring the tails up
through the fabric bands
at your sides.
6
This will allow you to
adjust the sling later on.
7
Pull the cross down
with both hands.
8
Rest your baby on your
shoulder and gently lower
her into the inner cross,
pulling her leg out through
the cross with your free
hand.
9
Switch shoulders and
do the same thing with
the other leg and the
outer cross.
10
Now spread both crosses
under your baby’s bottom and
across her back. Start with the
inner cross, …
11
… then spread the
outer one – each of them
should reach from the
back of one of your baby’s
knees to the other.
12
Push her feet up
slightly to make sure she
is in the perfect
frog-leg position.
13
To get a perfect and
tight fit, grasp the rails on
each side and push your
elbows against the fabric.
14
Instead of wrapping
the tails around the
bands at you sides you
can also tie them together
at your side or in
front of you.
16
When your child is a bit
older and wide awake, he
may enjoy having her arms
out in this carry.

Young babies and
sleeping children often like to
be wrapped up completely;
the inner cross serves as a
perfect head support and
sun cover.
