Many parents who use cloth diapers use cloth wipes as well.  I’ve had several people ask me, “why not just use washcloths?”.  Well you could do that, but why would you want to use boring old washcloths when you can use something much better?

Thirsties Fab Wipes

  Most cloth wipes are made with materials other than what a typical washcloth is made from; terrycloth.  Some are made with organic cotton, bamboo, cotton flannel and many other combinations.  Cloth wipes can be made in all kinds of sizes, though typical size is 8” x 8”.  They can be made with one material or two, as many cloth wipes are two pieces of material to help with the messiest of bottoms.

  You don’t just have to have boring old white or solid colors either. Many cloth wipes come in a variety of fun patterns, especially those made by WAHM (work at home moms).  Some green parents get sets with different patterns on them so they can keep straight with ones are used for faces and which for bottoms.

GroVia Wipes

  At Crackerjack’s we have mostly plain cloth wipes, but some are the softest material I’ve felt in a long time, like the Thirsties Fab Wipes.  We also have unbleached cotton terry wipes by Kissaluvs.  For those that want another option we have 100% cotton wipes by GroVia.

  If you are looking for hand made wipes in fun patterns you should look on Hyena Cart or Diaper Swappers.  Those two sites promote WAHM’s and you can get some great deals on super cute wipes.
