So you love HF's (hybrid Fitted's) or think you will, but you already have a full stash? Or you just can't wrap your head around the added cost. Well its not a lost cause! You can make an HF shell to put over your flats, prefolds, Fitted's, daddy flats, butterfly's or mini's.
What's an HF shell?
Its basically a fleece wrap with or without a decorative outer. You can also use it between diaper and cover at night to boost leak protection.
What do I need to make a hybrid shell?
•One diaper cut water resistant fleece
•One diaper cut decorative outer (Minky and upcycled t-shirts are popular)*optional
•one water resistant fleece soaker cut *optional
•3/8th inch braided elastic.
•universal thread.
• follow any turn and topstitch cover pattern / tutorial.
•pins, snappi, boingos, snaps or velcro
There you have it. 2-4 will do. I have 4. I can get 3 fleece wrap cuts from 1/2 a meter, same with Minky outer. I don't add the soaker layer but many like too.
Bellow: hybrid shell, diaper in shell, an OTB (on the bum).
