Last week I had the chance to snag this beautiful Natibaby Sea Pearls wrap for a steal! I had been searching for the gray and white version of this, and didn't even know that this colorway existed. This is a no-cotton blend of bamboo and linen (80% bamboo and 20% linen). Bamboo is soft and squashy, but I'd heard that it could be a little saggy with heavier babies, so I was excited to try it blended with linen for support.
First off, the color is amazing. It's a subtle tone on tone turquoise pattern that really shows up in the sun with amazing shimmer. It's as soft as a baby blanket and a little slippery. For that reason, it's probably not a great blend for a novice wrapper. I was initially surprised with how difficult it was to keep track of when wrapping E on my back, the passes kept sliding around unless I kept it super snug. But once it was wrapped, it felt great. Cushy on the shoulders but felt solid. Not as rock-solid as Natibaby's cotton-linen blends, but pretty good for bamboo. Bamboo is also a snuggly warm blend because it holds in heat. It should be great for winter snuggles.
