Flat Fold Invention Submission: Skinny Neat Fold

Here is another submission for the Flat Fold Invention Competition. This is called the “Skinny Neat Fold” from Monica at Crunchy Monica. Go ahead and give this fold a try!

Here's a picture tutorial of the Neat Fold, modified:

Step 1: Lay out flat diaper with point down. (El never fails to jump on any laid out fabric!)

Step 2: Fold up bottom corner towards middle.

Step 3: Fold top corner towards middle.

Photobucket
Step 4: Take left corner and fold across so that top edge of "flap" aligns across top of folded section.
Photobucket
This is what the flat should look like.
Photobucket
Step 5: Repeat step 4 with the right side. This is actually the end of the steps needed to make the traditional Neat Fold but I'm not a big fan of how bulky the middle is and prefer a thinner crotch area.

Step 6: Fold in left side towards middle.
Photobucket
Step 7: Fold in right side towards middle.
Photobucket
Step 8: Pull out left corner.
Photobucket
Step 9: Pull out right corner. (Notice the great "poop pocket" this creates.)
Photobucket
Step 10: Lay baby on top of diaper and pull center panel up.
Photobucket
Step 11: Fold down rise, if needed.
Photobucket
Step 12: Pull up right corner and "roll in" to make for a trimmer fit across hip, if desired. (This will create more of a "bikini cut" rather than a "boy short" cut.) Pull "tab" across middle.
Photobucket
Step 13: Repeat step 12 for left side.
Photobucket
Step 14: Adhere snappi fastener. Done!
Photobucket
Photobucket
I like to check each side for any gaping and will roll in any loose edges.
Photobucket
Notice the nice tight fit.
Photobucket
A very trim fluffy bum!
