They're a T shaped stretchy rubber thing with plastic hook things at the end
of
each T, sort of looks like a bandage clip, that hooks into the terry pile of
the
cloth nappy. The top of the T is a lot longer than the bottom piece. I
think
they're called a Happi Snappi.


A Happi Snappi for a nappy. How curious.

I must be too far removed from mothering babies--this does not sound remotely
familiar. But if it is better than a diaper pin, it's brilliant.

Cheers,
Karen Maslowski in Cincinnati

Just found an old package from one, they're just called a Snappi. They save
a lot of worry about whether you might accidently jab the nappy pin into
him/her, they are brilliant!

And found recently on a web-site that they are called Grippas (something similar)
in the US.
