Arvetis Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I recently started trying out flat cloth diapers. I like how they feel, and I've learned how to fold them several ways, but I'm running into a problem. No matter how I pin them, they always feel loose, even under plastic pants, and as I move they fall down. I think the problem is that, even if I pull them snug around my hips before pinning, the cloth naturally pulls to the far ends of the pins, adding an extra inch or so to each side. Does anyone know how to avoid this? Thanks! Link to comment
WBxx Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Like in the video below, I push the pin down through all layers and then back up to fasten. Link to comment
willnotwill Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 You can also try an alternative fastener like a Snappi. Link to comment
Arvetis Posted September 7, 2017 Author Share Posted September 7, 2017 Do they make Snappi-style things for adults? There's no way a baby-size one would fit on me. Link to comment

justforfun Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 If you're not already doing so, use four pins. Link to comment
oleman72 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 I use Boingo fasteners with my 4-10-4 prefolds. They are like mini bungee straps and work well with my 40" waist. Link to comment
