     Locate the laundry tabs. Simply place a new laundry tab over [the] existing laundry tab. The new tab is slightly larger so this is easy. (I don't think it is worth ripping out the old one just sew one over top.)

     I have to say, the changes to the design do mean that the V2 dries quicker than the V1, which is great. Do remember to do up the laundry tab, unless you want the nappy sticking to everything in the washing machine.

     Always fold back the hook and loop laundry tabs otherwise they will damage your nappies in the wash. Unfolded laundry tabs are the major cause of fabric balding so please use them.
