Is there a 'summer alternative' to the Moby wrap?

We had a Moby wrap for DD1 a couple of years ago but didn't really use it as much as we'd have liked when she was a newborn as it was a hot summer. I've since used a woven ring sling and a connecta, both of which I'll use again, but really like the idea of a wrap for a newborn. This one is due in June. Any suggestions? Thanks.

The Wrapsody Stretch is the best summer stretchy I've come across. It's quite a lot thinner than the Moby, but actually more supportive too.

Otherwise I would go for a gauze wrap, or a very thin woven....Wrapsody Breeze, or Calin Bleu gauze, or an Ellaroo maybe. You tie them slightly differently to the Moby as they don't stretch. They are probably all a bit cooler than the Wrapsody stretch though.

Calin Bleu gauze and Ellaroo wraps are both great in warm weather.

Thanks. Calin Bleu gauze looks within my price
range. Are woven ones used wrapped very differently to stretchy ones? I'll try to get to a sling meet.
