    does anyone know of a place to buy cotton knit fabric at a decent price. I am making scarves to keep the sand and grit out of our soldiers faces/nose/ears. To be sent to Afghanastan. I will be needing about 12 yds so I am looking for a budget wise store. I found some at fabric.com but @ almost $9.00 a yd I can't get many sent out. any suggestion? online store or near Cleveland Ohio. thanks

    Don't know where to help you but don't those knits come in 60 inch widths? That should help.

    How about this:

    thanks very much!! I just read a post about a FABRIC SHACK in Ohio too that sounds like it is very reasonable.

    PM me. I made a bunch of these for a unit that deployed and made too many. I still have some scarves and fabric that I would be delighted to send to you.
