Gather the fabric at tail of the ring sling, pleating (folding) it in fan like fashion. Ensure the edges remain on the outside. Do not worry even if the pleats are not neat.

s t e p s  3 :

 

 

Fold the tail back over the top ring and loop it back through the bottom ring.

 

You may wish to loosen the fabric at the rings slightly, insert both index fingers under the fabric (one at each side) and run your thumbs through the fabric to ensure that the pleats do not overlap.

s t e p s  2 :

 

 

Pass the gathered tail through both rings.

s t e p s  4 :

 

 

If the rails at the rings are overlapping, you may wish to lift up the rail at the ring, run the rail through your fingers again, ensuring the edge remains at the outer sides of the ring while tightening it again. Do refer to the video. This can be done either before or after putting on the ring sling.

Your ring sling is now ready to be used!
