Living in a hot place, I stayed away from
hopps for a long time thinking there were too thick for me. In December, I received Timbuktu which I was planning on using for a conversion. I ended up loving the wrap. No plans to chop now. It is much thinner than I expected. Certainly not among my thicker wraps. Will I use it on a hot summer day? No. But still totally worth having in my stash.
Hoppendiz makes a high quality wrap. I appreciate the different colored rails, the flat hem on the taper & straight sewing. It is soft, dense,
moldable and a pleasure to wrap with. The only problem is that Timbuktu makes the perfect swing. So I rarely get a chance to wrap with him.
A couple of weeks ago, I got a great deal on Miami. She is a gorgeous trio of pinks. While slightly thinner than Timbuktu, Miami wraps very similarly.
