Ring Sling Wearing Instructions - Threading

Hold the rings in one hand, and hold the tail, scrunched-up in your other hand.

Now bring the scrunched up tail to the rings...

...in through both of the rings. Catch the tail using the hand that you used to hold the rings earlier on.

...and pull the tail until the middle part of the sling. Now, your other hand would be holding the rings.

Separate the rings. Hold only the 'bottom' ring. Let go off the 'top' ring

Now, bring back the tail through the 'bottom' ring (the one that you're holding)

Catch the tail...

...and pull through

This is how it looks like when the tail is pulled through

Now here's the part where most people would likely neglect doing... Pull out the fabric from in between the rings. Open-up the fabric, from one side...

...to the other side. Open up the fabric evenly.

Now, pull back the tail slowly from one side...

...to the other side.

This is how it looks like when the ring sling is threaded nicely at the rings.Threading is done to ensure that the fabric go through the rings evenly, for easy adjustment later on when wearing the baby.

Now, you need to place the ring sling on your dominant shoulder. To do this, bring your dominant hand through the ring sling. Bring the ring sling over your head...*Note: if you're not sure which one is your dominant shoulder, think of which hand do you use the most to carry your baby (your dominant hand). If it's your left hand, then your dominant shoulder is your right shoulder, and vice versa)

...and land the padded part on your shoulder. Make sure that the rings are at the 'corsage postion'. Tada! You're done threading and putting on the sling.
