    Which fabric for Peanut Shell

    I'm looking at buying a peanut shell for quick trips with my newborn, we have a Moby Wrap which I can't tie up quickly or at all actually! We also have an ergo which isn't super quick either but great for longer trips. Any suggestions for which fabric should I get given we are coming into summer and we will prob only use it for these warmer months?

    My question too! I will follow this thread.....

    I'm looking at buying a Peanut Shell Sling very soon and for use in summer aswell!
    They look easy to use.

    Renstar I've been doing some reading and think i'm going to go with the microfleece. I found one for $60. They say they are the best for sling newbies which i am.

    I still welcome others experiences

    The cotton ones are best for summer in my opinion. The fleece ones would be way too hot for summer.

    My peanut shell arrived today after only ordering it yesterday! I'm very happy with it. I did end up with the microfleece because it was such a bargain. Its a really thin microfleece, very soft and comfy. I don't think it will be too bad at all. Emily seems to love it!
