Some yardage I bought several years ago was very stinky, not a musty smell, something else I could never identify. I suspect it had something to do with how it was printed. Anyway, the only thing that got rid of the smell was washing it and then hanging it in the sun to dry. I had to let it stay out in the sun for a couple of days before the stink completely dissipated.
