Show me the way to flats please!

[Om Girl]

I'm ready to go "super crunchy" and get some flats (prefer high quality organic cotton) and wool covers.
I've read you can't use a Snappi with flats (only pins) so suggest some good snug fitting wool covers too please!

Please link me to your favorite sites for flats and wool covers!
Thanks MDC parents

(Mods if this isn't the right place, please move my post)

Hi,

I LOVE flats!!!!! I don't use organic, but use the unbleached ones from Green Mountain Diapers (scroll down on the page):

They're a little bigger than most flats. I started using them on DD when she was about a month old (used newborn sized prefolds until then) but the beauty is that I can use them on DS as well (I use two on him), I have six dozen of them for a total cost of $96 (not including tax and shipping) and now that I have a broken dryer I am loving them even more.

You can definitely use a Snappi with these or any birdseye flat. I think the only flats that are difficult to Snappi are ones made from flannel or other tightly woven fabric. IMO though, pins are the best way to get a good snug fit--they just take lots or practice.

I get flats from Integrity Diaper Company, which has good selection and prices. You absolutely can Snappi a birdseye flat--in fact, it's even easier than doing it with a prefold. I don't know as much about other kinds of flats but you could check Green Mountain Diapers, Diaperware, and Tiny Birds Organics, all of which have carried them at some point. All of them carry wool, as well, but I don't know much about that either.
