By
Brand Name: Natibaby        
Wrap Name: Greece Lagoa

Reviewed by: Sarah Montgomery
Size of Wrap: Size 5
Fabric Content: 70% Cotton, 30% Hemp 


How long has this wrap been used by you? 
2 weeks                    

What size is the wrapee (ex: age, height & lbs):
20 months, 30 inches tall, 24lbs

What were/are the exact measurements (ex: Length & Width):
4.3 meters long, 27” wide

What is the thickness of this wrap (ex: thin, Med, Thick): 
Medium thickness

Did/Does it have cush:
(The Definition of Cush varies but could be described as marshmellowyness, soft, moldable, comfortable, ability to adapt to your body)
It was very moldable and easy to wrap with, very soft to the touch.

How did it feel on your shoulders: 
Comfortable, not diggy at all even with a sloppy wrap job, It is a bit slippery in a Ruck unless you make sure to twist then shoulders well.
How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have (ex: none- ace bandage like): 
Some diagonal stretch.

How supportive did you find it in a single layer carry? 
It was supportive and comfortable for a single layer carry. I used it in a Ruck for about 30 minutes at a time and found it very comfy.

How supportive did you find it in a double layer carry? 
It was very supportive in a double layer carry. Wearing my daughter while shopping she felt very light. I did again find the fabric to be more on the slippery side and needed to make sure my passes and knots were very tight.

Who do you think this wrap would best be geared to (ex: babies, toddlers, New Babywearers, Advanced Babywearers): 
I think this wrap would be good for semi-experienced wearers. I think it would be fine for either babies or toddlers. I think it would be a great wrap for someone just starting out with back wrapping as I found it especially easy to get a seat with and it is also easy to slide the passes when doing multiple layers. I think it might be a challenging wrap for a brand new wrapper to learn to tighten with though.

Would you recommend this wrap to a friend? Why? What did you love about it?
I would recommend this to someone who wanted a supportive and soft blend that is easy to wrap with. It knots a little on the thicker side and is a bit slipper for tightening knots. But I loved how easy I found getting a seat to be in it and I felt like it molded well to my daughter so it was harder for her to pop the seat once she was in.


Please tell us a little more about yourself (ex: how long have you been wearing, how many different wraps have you tried, what is your babywearing background): 
I have been wearing for almost 2 years, and have tried several different wraps in that time period. I am a Volunteer Babywearing Education with BWI of North Central Illinois and help teach babywearing at 1-2 meetings per month.

How to fix a pull in a woven wrap      If you are just joining us. Welcome!!! Welcome to the best blog you will ever read, (hehe). We are currently doing a blog series called "How to care and fix that woven wrap of yours".  The first post was an introduction and gave you the run down on how to care for your woven wrap . From washing to ironing.      Our second post in this series was focused on "How to fix Thread Shifting" in a woven wrap. In that post I walked you thru both in photos and text how to treat and fix thread shifting.       Today we are going to focus on how to fix a pull in a woven wrap. A pull in a woven wrap is very common and to be honest so common it would be rare for someone not to have ever had one or get one during their babywearing journey. Pulls can very easily happen, anything from a broken nail to just taking it out of the package and it catching on just the right thing. Fixing a pull is a very tedious task and we are setting u

How to make your woven wrap soft and floppy, otherwise known as breaking it in

By
You just received your wrap, but it's not as soft, floppy and cuddly as you were hoping for? Don't despair!  We'll help you get that wrap buttery soft and floppy! Okay, how do you get it to change? There are several tried and true methods, but the simple answer....break down the fibers by moving them.   Friction against them will wear them down. When you first get your wrap, give it a wash and dry  (following the washing instructions per blend)  This step will dramatically change the wrap right away and you'll notice that it's not as stiff. Give it a steam iron, or two or three (depending on the fiber) Steam ironing will break the fibers down quickly.  I've also noticed that when I steam iron it width wise it helps more then when I steam iron it moving the iron from side to side. That may just be my little quirk of mine though... Pull it through sling rings,if you have them.   If not create a loop and pull the rest of
