Natibaby Kurpie Sunset

By
Brand Name: Natibaby

Wrap Name: Kurpie Sunset

Reviewed by: Nina Naus

Size of Wrap: 7

Fabric Content: 50% Cotton, 50% Hemp







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

What size is the wrappee?
12 months, 27 inches, 23.5 pounds

What is the thickness of this wrap?
medium 

Does it have cush?
Ultimate cush, marshmallowy after a medium steam iron, and extremely moldable.

How does it feel on your shoulders?
I have picky shoulders and this wrap is nothing short of an absolute dream. It is very wide so I was able to spread it on my shoulders to absorb a lot of the weight from the little.

How much diagonal stretch does the wrap have?
on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the most stretch. Kurpie is at about a 6. Because of this the wrap molded wonderfully around myself and baby.

How supportive did you find it in a single layer carry?
Very supportive and toddler worthy   
How supportive did you find it in a double layer carry?
Extremely cuddly and supportive. Passes tighten very nicely.
Can you compare this wrap to another wrap already on the market?
Compared to Tekhni repreve (synthetic/cotton blend, baby-toddler worthy), Kurpie with Hemp softened up much easier, showing its moldability immediately while maintaining a toddler worthy weave.

Who do you think this wrap would best be geared to?
Baby-toddler and possibly even preschoolers. I would also recommend this to a new wrapper in a smaller size. Maybe a 5-6 will not have as long tails, but the knot is very easy to tie after wash and ironing. 

Would you recommend this wrap to a friend? Why? What did you love about it?
I would absolutely recommend this wrap to any babywearing friends. It is a gorgeous fall pattern with the contrasting colors. I love how well it molded to me and baby while wrapping. It made my first double hammock very easy to configure. This wrap was also cuddly enough to put my daughter to sleep at 3am on one of “those” nights.

Please tell us a little more about yourself:
I have been wrapping for about a year. I started with a Moby stretchy wrap, I’ve tried Girasols, Ellevill, and a lot of Tekhni wraps. I would still say I’m still a newer wrapper, but I like to take risks and try new carries all the time. I am a VBE for BWI of Chicagoland and I have tried a lot of different carriers over the last year of babywearing.

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 .

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.

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
