or lengthen the strap of a baby carriage chain"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><strong>In this guide, we show you how to get <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sindibaba.com\/en\/produkte\/baby-toys\/baby-carriage-chains\/\">your baby carriage chain<\/a> back into shape by shortening or lengthening the strap.<br \/>\nYou will find a short explanatory video below. <\/strong>  You&#8217;ve just bought your dream necklace in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sindibaba.com\/haendlersuche\/\">baby store<\/a> and can hardly wait to hang it on the baby carriage to see how it looks.<br \/>\nThe little figures all look golden and the color scheme of the chain matches the colors of your baby carriage perfectly.<br \/>\nEverything would be perfect if only the chain didn&#8217;t sag so much and leave so many empty spaces between the beads and figures strung on the chain cord.<br \/>\nThis could be because the elastic has too little tension. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sindibaba.com\/en\/produkte\/baby-toys\/baby-carriage-chains\/\">Crocheted baby carriage chains from SindiBaba<\/a> are made in such a way that you can use them with a wide range of baby carriages, Maxicosis, cribs and play arches\/playgyms of different sizes.<br \/>\nIn addition, some space has been left on the elastic band in case you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sindibaba.com\/personalisierung\/\">personalize<\/a> the pram chain with the name of your loved one(s).<br \/>\nSo if your baby carriage chain is sagging, this is probably not because the elastic is worn out, but because the chain is simply too long for your baby carriage model in its current setting.<br \/>\nIn addition, depending on the model, the sets of figures of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sindibaba.com\/en\/produkte\/baby-toys\/cuddly-toys\/\">crocheted or stuffed animals<\/a> strung on the baby carriage chain are of different sizes and weights, so that they sag more with one animal motif than with another.<br \/>\nWe will demonstrate this here using two examples:         <div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1613049196\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-990035121\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2>Example of

in pink<\/a>, for example, has relatively large and therefore heavy figures.<br \/>\nThis causes the chain to sag more than a baby carriage chain with lighter soft

instructions<\/h2>\n<p>  So what can you do to shape the elephant chain in the same way as the sloth chain?<br \/>\nTo tighten your baby carriage chain, you need to shorten its effective length to put more tension on the &#8220;rubber&#8221;, which will make it sag less.<br \/>\nYou can achieve this by moving the knots at both ends of the elastic more towards the middle.<br \/>\nWe demonstrate this in this video for one end of the chain: <div class=\"video-button-wrapper\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=h0C-jSCrBLM\" class=\"button open-video icon circle is-outline is-xlarge\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Open video in lightbox\" data-flatsome-role-button><i class=\"icon-play\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"font-size:1.5em;\"><\/i><\/a><\/div> In the case shown, the baby carriage chain could be shortened by 2 to 2.5 cm.<br \/>\nIf you repeat this for the other end, you can shorten your pram chain by a further 2 to 2.5 cm, i.e. by a total of 4 to 5 cm.<br \/>\nYou can shorten it even further with double knots.<br \/>\nThis allows you to shorten the baby carriage chain by a total of 8 to 10 cm.<br \/>\nYour chain should then &#8220;fit&#8221;.<br \/>\nAnd the whole thing also has a nice side effect: by shortening the elastic band, the empty spaces between the beads and figures also disappear, making the baby carriage chain look more aesthetically pleasing.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1981154772\">\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1838146268\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<p
