Podegi (literally means baby carrier in Korean)

Traditionally, a podegi is a Korean baby carrier that consists of a wide blanket with two straight straps on either side with the weight mostly held on the torso. The modern podegi has a narrow blanket with either straight or angled straps and can be worn as a torso or a two shouldered carry. These carriers require more of a learning curve than Mei Tai, but with time they can be an even faster and more convenient way to carry your child. One reason for this I find is that you don’t have an extra set of straps to pre tie which allows you to hold a fussy baby and strap them on w/o having to set them down.
