    Ring sling conversion

    Does anyone know where I can get my Lenny lamb woven converted to a ring sling? In Australia? I've tried googling but don't get much info.

    Have a look at pics of both, you want to get the shoulderstyle you like. I really like the SBP shoulder Keonislings does.

    Don't know, haven't had one. But you can get Lenny Lamb ring slings and they are fab.

    I have no idea how to multi quote on my phone so I'll try respond as best I can!

    Thanks everyone for replying

    I will check out the shoulder styles, I actually have a ring sling (cheapie from eBay) and it was ok up until DD got to about 8kgs. I don't know what the shoulder is called on that one.

    I have tried for 6 months to learn to wrap with my LL but I've given up and I have two mei tai's now. I have a kozy and melkaj but still want a ring sling now DD's starting to walk.

    The LL feels so great (cotton,bamboo) so think it'll make a great ring sling.

    Belloborn and Keonslings do them.
    Hippababy (in NZ) also does them, although I'm not sure if she is taking on more work or not at the moment - but I know she will do it if you go through tinoki.
    If you don't already have a specific wrap in mind to be converted, girasol RS's are a good option (you an buy them off ebay or through tinoki) as they are already converted for you.

    Having said that, it is really easy to onvert them yourself. All you need is some suitable rings (which most of the vendors stock or can get in) and some durable thread sewn with at least three lines of stitching.

    Thanks misty. My Lenny lamb (what I want converted) is really long so I wouldn't even know where to start to do it on my own!

    I was originally just going to sell it but it has some sentimental value being my first wrap lol even though I barely used it
