How to Fold a Flat Origami Style

Folding flats is intimidating!  I scoured the internet to find resources on folding them and came across many helpful tutorials and videos.  I like to put my own spin on things so I also made a tutorial video.

I don’t claim to be perfect on folding flats but so far my method is working on my son.  There are quite a few different ways to Origami fold but I chose the way that worked best for me.

The origami fold gives you about 8-12 layers of absorbency in the wet zone.  In may ways it acts like a prefold once you get the diaper folded.  I found this fold to be more absorbent than the Kite fold, but the Kite fold is a bit trimmer and easier to put on the baby, in my opinion.
