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.

Hoppediz Lille
I love the combination of pink and red and Lille places this combination on a cream background. Like other Hoppedizs. Lille has contrasting rails which is helpful when wrapping. Mine was relatively thin, given Hoppediz's reputation. Wide, moldable, good glide and soft, Lille is easy to wrap with.

Diva Milano Reticella Turchese
A new brand peaked my interest last spring. Soon after, Diva Milano Reticella Turchese was on the way. Complete with many of the qualities I love, soft, medium thin, wide, smooth, moldable with great glide. Though my back carries started nice and high, in long carries I found carries sagging slightly. I loved the extra width in back carries but found the width to be more than I like in front carries. My favorite of the Diva patterns but Reticella is too feminine for my tastes with a boy, so off it went in trade.
