Review Fiddling weaver sunahara

Review Fiddling weaver Sunahara
50% peppermint, 25% hemp, 25% egyptian cotton, 320 gr/m, 4.1m+fringes

I was over the moon when I heard I would get the chance to try a wrap from fiddling weaver, I have been eyeing Milena's wraps for a while allready cause they look so elegant and soft.
And the color of the wrap I received was indeed very elegant, with a gold/bronze and dark to light blue. It will give that little extra touch of style on a fancy party but will also make your day in pj's look great! The design in the weave is very subtle but very nicely done aswell.
And they feel like they look, so soft, even though the wrap feels fairly thin in hand it wraps like a cloud. I can't say the wrap has cush when you feel it in hand but once wrapped you feel that the wrap is cushy on your shoulders, no pulling or cutting into my bony shoulders. Sunahara feels very drappy which is the main reason for my love of most handwovens, I can't find this feeling in machine woven wraps and not even in all handwovens but yes fiddling weaver has got the drappyness I love.
This wrap is super moldable and very strong at the same time, it has a nice amount of stretch but without getting saggy to quickly.
I mostly wrapped my 1.5 year old but also managed to get my big boy of 4.5 up for some cuddles in this wrap the last day of it's visit. It held up fantastically with him aswell!
I had heard of peppermint in a wrap before, and heard it was very supportive, shiny but slippery. Well I was not dissapionted, it's mixed up in this wrap with hemp and cotton but the wrap was indeed very shiny and supportive but I didn't think it was to slippery, maybe because of the hemp that is in the mix, maybe because of the weave, not sure.
Also this was my first ever wrap with fringes and wow do I like how they look, and in a cccb I just could not stop fiddling with them (yes pun intended hihi). I usually always want something in my hand to keep me busy so I found it great to have these fringes to play with.

If you want to know more about this great weaver go have a look at her facebook page, where she posts her inspirational pictures and pictures of wraps that she's weaving at the moment or in the coming future.  https://www.facebook.com/FiddlingWeaver/

And here a few pictures with this wrap, we only had it a few days so not that many pictures but it still shows how it wraps and you can see how supportive it looks with my big boy.

review rowan bay linen proto Sorbu naty

Review Rowan Bay linen proto
Combed cotton warp with natural linen weft, size 3

A few weeks ago we had a very special wrap visiting, it was a linen prototype named sorbus naty.
Yes naty, an all white, untouched by colour, wrap. A little scary to wear an all white wrap when you use your wraps all day long like I do, from cooking to cleaning the house, from going to the store to going for a walk in the forest. But we managed to keep it clean and white.
The design is very discretely visible because it is a naty, but it's really nice to see the design reflect in the sun.
When I first opened the box this wrap felt so so soft, not at all what I would expect from a wrap with a high amount of linen. This wrap came to me fully broken in already. I washed it because there was a little stain on it and it became a little less soft but after 2 little walks with my little one it was soft as a kitten again.
This wrap has a lot of glide and not that much grip, it's very smooth to the touch which is very noticeable when wrapping, re-tightening was necessary when my little one moved around a lot.
Sorbus naty has a small amount of stretch, more then I'm used to from other linen wraps I have tried.
Overall this was a really nice introduction to this brand and hope to try more of their wraps in the future.
This wrap is in my opinion great for all ages and all wrappers.
