Description
Pale mint runs so light that it nearly reads white, until you hold it beside white. Then its green core shows — colour enough not to look colourless, too little to turn loud.
Muslin is a double gauze: two fine woven layers joined at many points. That is where its typical crinkle comes from, and its soft handle too — this cloth lies airily against skin without clinging. Weight 130 g/m², width 130 cm, 100 % cotton, by the metre from 0.2 metres. Wash on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees; pressing, bleaching, tumble drying are ruled out by its care symbols. No drawback there: that crinkle is wanted, and a smoothly pressed muslin loses exactly what makes it. One point for quantity: residual shrinkage runs around 10 %, so add that when ordering and wash once before cutting.
What Muslin Double Gauze Jenke Plain Pale Mint is suitable for
- Baby things, because this shade stays neutral enough for anyone.
- Summer blouses, because pale mint reads cool.
- Pairings with natural white, because both stay pale.

Frequently asked questions
Is muslin suitable for baby things?
It is the classic for burp cloths, swaddles and light summer pieces, being soft and growing softer with every wash. Wash it first, so it absorbs well from the start.
How many layers do I need?
One layer serves for scarves or summer clothing. In pale shades and close-fitting pieces, work double or line it, because this cloth is sheer by nature and lets light through.
Will it shrink in the wash?
Cotton pulls together in a first wash, on double gauze rather more than on a smooth weave. Wash your fabric once before cutting, exactly as you will care for the finished piece.
Will the colour look like the photo?
Double gauze breaks light through its crinkle, so a shade looks livelier than on smooth cloth. In shade it reads darker, in sunlight paler — both belong to it.
