Where is the best place to get muslin squares??

I know it's probably a silly question........ but I want to make some jam/marmalade???

I've looked on ebay and can't find any???  Where do I look ?

[SMD66]

have you tried 'Lakeland'.  I had some from there yrs ago.  They sell lots of stuff for jam making etc

Was just going to say that Lakeland do them - please go through the allotment shop as we earn a small commission.

Never think of lakeland  even though it's splashed accross  the top of this forum .

Can you tell i'm not used to this section?  ooops  Thanks   sam

Will do that Val!!

The comments say that these ones are NOT suitable for marmalade and jam making.

Try the Baby section in the supermarket.

I had some from Morrison's, 3 large ones, if I remember rightly they were a good price too around about £1.50.

I bought a couple of metres of muslin from John Lewis and cut it into squares.

That's what I do too!  but not from John Lewis

Me too but from ebay and will take me years to get through the £5 worth of muslin (about 15m!).

I got some from JamJarShop.com.

What would make muslin not suitable for jam making?  I've got some of the lakeland muslin but hadn't (yet) used it for jam.

The Lakeland squares are not big enough, they are only big enough to wrap around a bunch of herbs

[HLS]

How big does it have to be for jam?  The lakeland ones I've got seem a reasonable size - they're folded in quarters to fit into the packet, so that isn't the size of the actual material.  Can't remember exactly how big they are, though.
