Flour Sack Towels for Cloth Diapers FAQ

Why use flour sack towels for cloth diapers?

Flour sack towels for cloth diapers are popular because they're highly absorbent, affordable, and improve with washing. The flat weave allows them to fold compactly, dry quickly, and absorb liquid faster than bulkier materials. They're a budget-friendly alternative to expensive microfiber or bamboo inserts.

How many flour sack towels do I need for cloth diapering?

Most families start with 24-36 flour sack towels for diapers. This allows for 12-18 in use/diaper bag, while the rest are in the wash. If you want maximum savings, order 50+ to get our bulk discount and always have plenty on hand.

How do you prepare flour sack towels for diapers?

Wash flour sack towels 3-5 times before first use to remove any sizing and increase absorbency. Use hot water with a small amount of detergent. Avoid fabric softener as it reduces absorbency. They'll continue to get more absorbent over time.

Are white or natural flour sack towels better for diapers?

Both work great! White flour sack towels can be bleached for deep cleaning and stain removal. Natural unbleached towels have no chemical processing, which some parents prefer for sensitive skin. The natural towels are also slightly larger (29x29" vs 27x27").

How do flour sack towel inserts compare to microfiber?

Flour sack towels absorb liquid more slowly than microfiber but hold more overall. They can be placed directly against baby's skin (microfiber cannot), dry faster, don't develop odor issues, and last much longer. Many parents use flour sack towels as their go-to daytime insert.
