I haven't seen any bamboo prefolds, plenty of hemp ones around. But I love my bamboo flats from www.nurturenappies.com.au and www.bitsforbots.com.au I reach for them well before I reach for my canningvale squares!

I'd agree with Lucy I haven't seen bamboo prefolds but you can make three if you buy 4 bamboo flats. The fourth you cut into thirds, overlock all the edges and sew into the middle of the flat on each of them

Iishfly have some gorgeously soft double sided terry prefolds coming back in stock very soon. They are cheap and the BEST! Soft, stretchy, absorbent. I put mine in pockets for night. If I'd known about this stuff when I started out I would have bought a whole heap and made flats, rather than blowing my money on a plethora of fitteds. Not that I don't like my fitteds, but my bank balance would have been happier.
