Safety tested: this wrap has passed US safety standards (ASTM F2907) in a government approved laboratory.

The Girasol Eclipse wrap is woven in a medium gray thread (gris medio), with a stripe of silver (mercurio) along one rail, to make it easier to keep track of whether you have twisted the wrap behind your back.  Black zigzags run through the entire wrap – that is the beautiful herringbone weave in black (cuervo).

 

Eclipse is a unique artisan piece, handwoven on traditional looms in Guatemala.

 

I couldn’t resist naming it for the astronomical event many of us just witnessed. We drove for 8 hours to take our kids to see the totality of the solar eclipse. We saw the strange deepening of the light that tinted the world a strangely vivid hue as the sun was partially covered. And we found out that we could view the partial eclipse with our naked eyes when clouds crossed in front of the sun and the moon. Then we saw the “diamond ring” effect as the moon hovered momentarily on the cusp of totally covering the sun, and finally night fell. All around the horizon was a gentle pinkening as if the sun had set over 360 degrees of the horizon. And then the diamond ring was back – just for a glimpse – and then there was the sun again and the world was bright again.

 

This beautiful black wrap with the lighter gray rays zig zagging through it and an edge of silver . . .  remind me of the magic of our total eclipse adventure!

 

It will be easy to use straight out of the box as it is thin and supple, perfect for wrapping around a newborn or for back wrapping a heavy toddler and everything in between. You can use this Eclipse Girasol wrap in dozens of different ways for front carries, hip carries and for back carries for any age. I have many tutorials here on my website just for you but you can contact me anytime if you need help :)

 

For those familiar with g/m² or gsm (grams per square meter – a way of measuring fabric weight), this herringbone weave Eclipse wrap has a gsm of about 210.49 g/m²

Choose Woven Wrap Size

This graphic will help you identify your base size – the wrap length you would use for full length carries.

You can choose to get your base size for the widest range of carries, or a shorter length for shorter carries with fewer layers. 2 sizes smaller than your base size is a good size for still having a lot of options if you prefer less fabric.

Or get any size you prefer.

Girasol Eclipse is a handwoven artisan piece

This wrap was handwoven in Guatemala under fair trade practices, making it an ethical consumer choice and perfect for those who wish to support artisans.

Girasol Eclipse wrap is easy to use and care for:

This wrap is 100% cotton so it is easy to care for and does not need babying. The Girasol Eclipse wrap can be machine washed, may be ironed, and occasionally – if haste is required – even dried in tumble-driers.

Eclipse has different color rails

Because this wrap does not have a color gradient – it is charcoal from one end to the other – I have designed it with a silver or light grey stripe along just one side. This makes it easy to keep track of your rails – meaning that you always know which side of the wrap is which and can tell if it had become twisted. This helps you get a smooth and even wrap carry that will stay comfortable for hours with even heavy toddlers!

Woven Wraps Compared to Other Baby Carriers

Woven wraps are the best way to carry your baby close from newborn through toddler so you never have to size up and they never outgrow it!

They are always a custom fit so there’s no adjustments when a different caregiver needs to use it or when your baby grows. No attachments or accessories, no buckles or weight bearing seams – just beautiful hand-woven fabric for the most comfort and versatility.

Woven wrap sizing depends mainly on the size of the adult using the wrap and which carries you want to be able to do.

If you are new to woven wraps, choose your base size wrap. Your BASE SIZE is the wrap length that will allow you to comfortably tie all of the full length carries.

If you live somewhere very hot or prefer to use a shorter wrap that will have fewer layers around you and baby, I recommend choosing a size that is 2 sizes smaller than your BASE SIZE.

1. Use the chart below to find your base size.
2. Select your base size or a wrap that is 2 sizes smaller than your base size.
3. If you are wrapping a large toddler or wrapping twins, you can use a wrap that is 1 size larger than your base size.
