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.

Didymos Petrol Hemp Indio V1


Petrol Hemp Indio was released in 2012.  At first weaved on a small scale, Didymos responded to the pleas of mamas for a larger release of this wrap.  I have the first version with the whiter hemp threads.

Weight/Area: 218 g/qm
Width:  69 cm
Thickness:  20 mils

Didymos Agave


Didymos released a series of double face linen blends in the spring of 2010.  The thinnest of the set, Agave's linen gold shimmers with the petrol cotton.  Thin, moldable, great glide with the support of linen.  Agave did have a tendency to dig with a sloppy wrapping job and heavy baby.

Weight/Area: 187 g/qm
Width:  66 cm
Thickness: 18.5 mils



Didymos Petrol Fish


I found petrol fish early on in wrapping days.  Easy to wrap with smooth, moldable, soft with great glide.  Mine was a size 5 which is my least favorite and probably why I sold it for a steal.

Weight/Area:  214 g/qm
Width:  64 cm
Thickness:  22 mils
