The Pikkolo baby carrier was launched Oct '07 by CatBird Baby.
The baby carriers below are from the Fall 2008 line, which includes softer brushed canvas and an improved sleeping hood design.

Designed for newborns to start by facing inwards and- once they're ready- Pikkolo lets them face out to the world.
Wear on your front, back, or hip.

Pikkolo provides essential waist belt support as your newborn grows into toddlerhood and begins riding on your back. Wear the shoulder straps backpack style or crossed in an X. Once your infant can sit up you'll easily wear Pikkolo on your front, side, or back as needed. This is a good carrier for breastfeeding.

Includes detachable sleeping hood and innovative adjustable width bottom for outward-facing babies

The Pikkolo carrier will take you from the newborn stage in a frontpack carry through to toddler backpack. An optional waist belt attachment is available which some people find helpful for staying comfortable during the heavier toddler years.
