Folding your sling into a neat package, for storage or travel
Sling laid out, threaded, flat. |

| Left side folded inwards. On a 30" wide sling, the first fold will be about 10" from the edge. If you are folding a very wide sling, you will need to fold it in fifths (so, about 9" between folds). | ![]() |
| Right side folded over | ![]() |
| Bottom edge folded up about 1/4 the length of the sling. This will make the "pocket" the sling is folded into. | ![]() |
| Ring end folded down to meet the top of the previous fold, again, about 1/4 the original length of the sling. | ![]() |
| Just showing the pocket made by the bottom folded edge; you can see the edge of the tail on the upper inside of the pocket, and the part my finger is hooked into is the pouch part of the sling. | ![]() |
| The sling is now folded in half and tucked into the pocket shown in the previous step. Voila, a neat little package ready to store. (This will, of course, leave crease marks if you store it like this for a long time, so either be prepared to iron or just don't mind the wrinkles!) | ![]() |
