A Note About the Measurements

Wraps are inherently difficult to measure. Length is measured with a soft tape in hand. The tape measure I use is 100 ft, so it is done continuously. I square the wrap when measuring width (so as not to measure diagonally) and flatten the wrap without stretching to get the width. Thickness is measured with a micrometer. This is highly dependent on user. Thicknesses should be used in comparison rather than as absolutes.

Girasol Blau


Metro Mini's Girasol exclusive Blau is an old weave (wrong side) with 3 blue/turquoise stripes.  The weft is the same color as the darker turquoise stripe.  It is very soft but I find it less supportive than both the new twill and diamond weaves.

Weight/Area: 231 g/qm
Width:  64 cm
Thickness:  21 mils
