Please recommend best Mei Tai pattern?

[KJ]

Dear all,

have decided I need a Mei Tai sling for Asher. We've got several evenings dos this summer which we have to take him to, and I think he won't settle in his pram. So I rekon a mei Tai is the best way to go with him tied to me.

Can't afford any of the new ones, so can anyone recommend a good, safe, tried and tested pattern for making/sewing one yourself? My nan is a very good seamstress and I was going to ask her if she could make one for me.

Thanks,

K.xx
