Terry Squares
Terry squares are still incredibly popular and now available in a range of colours, plain white, or even unbleached, organic cotton or bamboo. Once you get the hang of the folds, terry squares are a doddle. Cheap to buy, quick to dry and so versatile you’ll be using them for years and years all around the house as floor cloths or dusters!
What You Will Need
You will need about 24 squares and most people find that the standard size (60cm x 60cm) is perfect for all sizes of baby, but you can buy extra small and extra large squares should you need them.
Once folded, Terry Squares will need to be fastened, pins are still available but most parents choose plastic grips such as Nappy Nippas. They also need covering with a waterproof wrap but as these won't need changing every time you will only need about 6 - 8 of each size. Most parents also use a nappy liner for convenience.
Cost
Buying 24 terry squares, 16 wraps and nappi nippas will cost you around £100. If you choose to use pins and traditional pull on waterproof pants you can spend as little as £50.
