Smittens Vena Cava - Melanzana
Color: Eggplant & EcruMaterial: 100% cotton
Fabric Weight: Medium (Approx - 260 g/m² prewash)
I received the
Smittens Vena Cava - Melanzana wrap about 2 weeks ago. From the very
first time seeing those cute, tiny hearts, I began following the Smittens
history. I was following the wrap on http://5mr.com/ and wasn't sure about its thickness.
My toddler is not that tiny no more, so I prefer thicker wraps when I carry her.
There are times when I carry her for up to 3 hours and thin wraps hurt and
leave marks on my arms. After following Smittens’ FB page, they finally advertised
a sale. The wrap I chose was advertised as 260 g/m²-prewashed. So I figured I would give it a try. Shipping was quick
and they even enclosed a cute little book and washing/wearing instructions with
my wrap. <3 thank you. :-) My first impression was, it felt quite stiff and
really thin when I unwrapped it. But that changed after I gave it a wash. The
wash actually changed the texture and I was blown away by the width of the
wrap. This is the widest wrap I ever worked with so far and I absolutely love
it. I use the double hammock with my daughter a lot and it was quiet difficult
first. I thought my arm wasn't long enough the get the fabric all over her
butt. lol
I really do LOVE
this wrap and I'm quite surprised about the quality. The texture is really nice
and the weave is tight so it feels safe for pulling. It didn't take too long to
break it in and there was no braiding necessary. Another reason I like
this wrap is that it’s in a decent price range. So please, keep it going. This
is perfect for newbies who don't want to spend an arm and a leg for a wrap. I
would recommend this wrap for a little squish and toddler. I'm not sure if I
would buy a shorty for my toddler if I would do a single layer
wrap technique like the ER but it's perfect for double layer. I did
choose a "plain" color because it just goes perfect with everything.
There are some more great colors and other patterns on their page.
