This lightweight gauze is perfect for uses from clothing to cheesecloth, as its open weave combines with a low thread count to create a very porous fabric with the ability to stand up to repeated use. Take advantage of its cool, whisper-softness and natural cotton color to make curtains, hat and clothing linings, costumes, and intimate garments. Great for reusable gauze bags to store fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator, or for drying herbs. Gardeners use this fabric to protect fragile seedlings from insects. Use it like cheesecloth when making tofu or cheese, and when straining fruit while making jelly. (If you haven't made at least basic farmer's cheese or paneer yet, try it -- it's fast and easy, and so very rewarding!) You can also create organic bandages!
