Hemp/cotton doublers provide additional absorbency. Made in USA from imported materials.
Size Small, 4x11 inches
Size Long, 4x14 inches
Our GMD Hemp Doublers are three layers of 55% hemp, 45% organic cotton. Hemp is very absorbent and technically more absorbent than cotton alone. I can't tell in real life and in my own testing, but that is what I am told. It's not the jersey kind, it's the thicker more absorbent fleeced kind.
This fabric is mill washed so it won’t shrink too much. Small Hemp Doublers are 4 inches wide by 11 inches long before washing and the Long are 3 inches longer but the same width, before washing. These do not shrink much in width; they shrink about 1 to 1.5 inches in length. These are trim. Wonderful on infants, but also good on older babies when you need a bit more absorbency and don't want to add bulk. It is narrow, so it's not bulky between the legs. The narrowness also keeps the fit correct in many fitted diapers since it's narrow enough not to interfere with the fit of the leg openings. This is really a wonderful, high-value (very useful) item.
If you buy these when baby is young, you can keep using them all the way to potty training for a truly excellent value. The size long gives you some more absorbency for an older baby. Made in the USA of imported material. Both the cotton and hemp are said to be organic, according to our fabric supplier, but at this time they are uncertified. Note: if you like to use borax a lot, choose 100% cotton instead of hemp. Cut and sewn in the USA of imported material (all hemp is imported. There is no such thing as hemp that is made in the USA as far as I know; most places leave off that tidbit about the fact that the hemp is imported). Custom made for Green Mountain Diapers by a grandma for over 12 years. Her sewing work is wonderful. Since there is just one person sewing these we sometimes sell out of them faster than she can sew them. I apologize for the occasional times that they are out of stock. When this happens it is usually only for a short time so check back again soon.
Unlike the cotton Cloth-eez Doublers, these doublers lay flat after washing. These Hemp Doublers are also available in a Stay-Dry version.
Made in the USA from imported materials. 55% hemp, 45% organic cotton. Edge stitch is synthetic for strength. Final product is not certified.
Care: Machine wash/dry
Natural fibers change with use and washing. Hemp/cotton is fluffy when new but that will change with washing. Hemp is a dense material which makes it more absorbent than cotton. The fluffy fleeced part goes away after many washings and they become smoother.
Each size and kind has unique edge color stitching for easy identification. It is reversible.
Small is white/white.
Long is pink/blue.
