Nappies: Prefold & Square/Flat Nappies: Mukti Organic Prefolds

These prefolds are at a reduced price as they are seconds quality: there may be additional stitching lines to secure the internal layers. 

These are beautifully soft 100% organic cotton prefolds‚ ethically made for Darlings Downunder by women at the Mukti Mission in India. The fabric is a jersey weave‚ so has a slight stretch to it – perfect for getting a snug fit. You can use a Snappi to fasten the prefold or just fold it in thirds and tuck it in a good fitting cover.

How to fold a prefold: 4 ways to fold a prefold 

We’ve found that the organic cotton fabric used to make these prefolds is more absorbent than standard cotton prefold twill fabric‚ so fewer layers are required for similar absorbency.

Please note that these prefolds are handmade, and as such there are slight variations in dimension.

• The Newborn size fits to around 6kg or so. The unwashed dimensions are approximately 38 x 40cm in a 2 x 4 x 2 configuration. As the fabric is so trim‚ it is easy to fold this prefold down to fit the smallest newborn. This prefold is wider than most prefolds made for newborns (it is almost square).
  

• The Infant size is suitable for babies from 3 kg up. The unwashed dimensions are approximately 37 x 50cm in a 2 x 4 x 2 configuration.

Mukti Mission has been caring for destitute women and children for 120 years‚ providing hope and a future for them irrespective of their religion‚ race‚ caste‚ or ethnic background.

These prefolds are sewn by women who would otherwise be unable to earn a living‚ and each prefold sold helps Mukti continue their work in supporting and helping women.
