We are excited to offer the new EllaRoo Podaegi! This is an ancient Korean design that proves itself to be just as versatile and practical today as ever. A LITTLE BACKGROUND: A podaegi (sometimes translated as podegi or podeagi) is a traditional baby carrier design from Korea. It is a piece of fabric that wraps around the mother and baby and is secured with two long sashes holding the baby in place on mama`s back. We invite you to read more about the history of the podaegi baby carrier. There are four (that we know of!) hands-free ways to carry the child, from infancy through toddler-hood, including one method that does not use the shoulders to carry baby's weight. This makes the podaegi particularly well-suited to a variety of body types and physical conditions. All of these characteristics come together in a versatile and practical baby carrier for anyone who needs to get things done. Traditional wide version: Straps - 4" X 183" Blanket - 21" X 61" New narrow version: Straps - 4" X 183" Blanket - 21" X 18" Both reversible, 100% cotton, with organic cotton batting. Made in USA. |
