1. An infant carrier, comprising:

a waist-worn member provided so as to be worn on a waist of a user and including a first worn part and a second worn part; and

a tightening unit provided on the waist-worn member and configured to adjust a circumferential length of the waist-worn member when the waist-worn member is worn on the waist of the user,

wherein the tightening unit includes a cable member configured to connect the first worn part and the second worn part, a hooking part configured to movably support the cable member passing therethrough, an adjustment part configured to wind the cable member and adjust the circumferential length of the waist-worn member by selectively unwinding at least a part of the cable member, and a cover selectively connected to the waist-worn member to cover at least a part of the tightening unit,

wherein the cover includes a connection portion configured to be connectable to the waist-worn member, and a waist support portion configured to support the waist of the user between the waist-worn member and the waist of the user;

a connector disposed at each of the first and second worn parts so as to selectively fasten the waist-worn member;

a hip seat connected to an outer circumferential surface of the waist-worn member and disposed between the adjustment part and the connector; and

at least one length selection unit comprising a first fastening portion and a second fastening portion and disposed between the adjustment part and the hip seat on the waist-worn member, wherein,

upon a fastened state between the first and second fastening portions, the waist-worn member between the first fastening portion and the second fastening portion is folded, and

upon a non-fastened state between the first and second fastening portions, the waist-worn member between the first fastening portion and the second fastening portion is unfolded as the first fastening portion and the second fastening portion are spaced apart from each other,

wherein the hooking part includes a first hooking arrangement and a second hooking arrangement,

the first hooking arrangement including a first ring, a second ring, and a third ring, wherein the first, the second, and the third rings are arranged in a same column, and

the second hooking arrangement including a fourth ring, a fifth ring, and a guide part having a first end-side cable guide having a first hole shape and a second end-side cable guide having a second hole shape, wherein the fourth ring, the fifth ring, the first end-side cable guide, and the second end-side cable guide are arranged in a same column,

wherein the cable member passes through the first end-side cable guide, the first ring, the fourth ring, the second ring, the fifth ring, the third ring, and the second end-side cable guide sequentially.

2. The infant carrier of claim 1 , wherein the first hooking arrangement is disposed on the waist-worn member so that the cable member passes through the first hooking arrangement, and the guide part is disposed to face the first hooking arrangement so that the cable member passes through the guide part.

3. The infant carrier of claim 2 , wherein the guide part is provided at one end of at least one of the first worn part and the second worn part so that the cable member passes through the first and second end-side cable guides, and

the cable member configured to extend from the adjustment part and pass through the first and second end-side cable guides and the first hooking arrangement.

4. The infant carrier of claim 3 , wherein the guide part further includes an intermediate cable guide provided on the waist-worn member and disposed between the first and second end-side cable guides and the adjustment part so that the cable member passes through the intermediate cable guide.

5. The infant carrier of claim 3 , wherein the second hooking arrangement is disposed opposite to the first hooking arrangement so that the cable member passes through the second hooking arrangement, and

the cable member extends from the adjustment part and passes through the first and second end-side cable guides, the first hooking arrangement and the second hooking arrangement.

6. The infant carrier of claim 5 , wherein the distance between the first and third rings, and between the fourth and fifth rings are set to be smaller than an average width of the waist-worn member.

7. The infant carrier of claim 1 ,

wherein the length selection unit is disposed so as not to overlap with the cable member.

8. The infant carrier of claim 1 , wherein the adjustment part is configured to wind the cable member by being rotated in one direction, and further comprising:

a stopper provided inside the adjustment part and configured to selectively limit rotation of the adjustment part in the other direction opposite to the one direction.

9. The infant carrier of claim 1 , wherein the waist support portion is formed in a shape of a slit into which at least a part of the waist-worn member is inserted.
