I love pre-folds because of how economical they are! I’ve only tried cotton pre-folds thus far and have found them to be quite easy to clean; in 6 months I’ve only stripped them once, and then only because we were going on a week-long vacation and I had the opportunity to wash all of them at once before the trip. Are the hemp really as easy to clean? It sounds like they might even be easier due to how thin they are, i just wonder about the fabric holding on to smells.
Also, bummed you can’t use Snappis with them. I love the jelly roll fold.

I love these prefolds, super slim and haven’t had a leak yet!

I had one of the hemp prefolds when my guy was small, and it did work great. In fact, I should find it again and use it as an overnight doubler. I did us pins on it some, and it did cause small holes in the fabric. I never considered buying more in the larger size for that reason. Now if Thirsties would make a USA -made woven cotton prefold, I’d be all over it!

I have yet to venture into the prefold/cover world but have been doing research and these look so much easier than I thought! Also heard hemp is an amazing fabric to use!

These look amazing. I’m looking forward to using prefolds and covers with my first baby this October!

Like many comments, I didn’t know you shouldn’t use snappis or pins. Are there any other fasteners that are approved for these pre-folds so you can use other folds? I’ve heard great things about hemp pre-folds so hopefully we can use these at some point!

I need to try these. I love how the top flap is only one layer to reduce bulk when folded down.

I’ve been trying to figure out the difference between lots of different prefolds – thanks for giving the down low on yours!

I bought some premium unbleached organic cotton prefolds and I so didn’t realize how big they would be. Now my baby boy has a big ‘ol bubble butt!

I’d like to try hemp and compare the absorbency.
