OsoCozy Indian Cotton Prefolds
Prefolds may be purchased individually or in packages of 1 dozen. Packages are discounted.
These diapers are made of 100% cotton unbleached twill weave. Indian cotton prefolds are soft and very absorbent. Unbleached prefolds still have a natural oil on them that must be removed before using. Be sure to prepare them by doing several hot washes and they will quilt up nice and thick. The washing process will shrink the prefolds by 5-10%. The more they are washed the more absorbant they will become.

The main difference between the regular and premium size is that the premium size has two extra layers of material in the center. The premium size is good for naps and nighttime because of the increased absorbency over the regular size. Many people prefer the regular size during the day because with two less layers in the middle it is less bulky than the premium size.
The preemie/newborn size work great for the early stages and can be continued to be use for other things. Once outgrown as a prefold diaper it works great as a doubler inside pocket diapers or with a larger sized prefold. A nice way to increase the absorbency of a diaper without adding a lot of bulk. The infant size may also be used in pocket diapers to increase the absorbency.
Use pins or a Snappi to secure then wrap with a cover. Prefolds may also be trifolded and placed in a cover then wrapped as a unit around the baby.
