Medium stretch, it's easy to get a nice tight wrap job that conforms to the body but doesn't feel like an ace bandage.

Relatively supportive. Would be comfortable carrying my toddler on a twenty minute walk in a single layer. It is preferable in multilayers for longer lengths of time.

It's perfect in multilayer carries, keeps baby snug to body without overheating in 90 degree weather. It doesn't strain the shoulders or sag with long wear.

I find it comparable to JKO Bodhi in support and cush and to cyclamen info in airiness/breathability

Think it is suitable for everyone.

Would you recommend this wrap to a friend? Why? What did you love about it?

Yes, I love the way it wraps, it's lightness for summer while still having a medium weight and excellent support.

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've been wearing since September 2012, woven wraps since January 2013. I've tried probably 80 wraps (I may be low balling that number) and most types of carriers.

I've been a VBE for at least a year now. I try and experience a variety of wraps from LF to the various HE wraps available. I've also used SSCs and MTs regularly. I can use RS and pouches but prefer not to.

My wrapee is a daring one who loves to push the limits of all the carriers we use and test her Houdini abilities.

How to fix a pull in your woven wrap

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 .

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

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...
