Double Gauze/Muslin

Usually made from cotton, and it’s essentially two plies of thin woven materials that are basted together. The result is a very lightweight material with tiny air pockets throughout making it very breathable.

Sometimes people refer to gauze fabric as “muslin,” but this particular fabric is distinct because it’s two-ply instead of one.

You may also have heard it called:

• Gauze fabric
• Muslin
• Cheesecloth

How to Care for Double Gauze Fabric
Double gauze fabric is such a soft and lovely fabric that only grows softer over time and each wash.

It will shrink in the first wash like most cotton and it will crinkle up a little so may need a good iron before sewing.
