Default Cayugad, Cleaning patch cloth?

What is the name of that cloth you get at Wally World to cut into cleaning patches.
Rather than go feel all the cloth in that section I thought I would just ask you.

My Wal Mart sells a bag of patches. There is not real size to any of them, but most of them you have to cut to size. It looks like someone is cleaning a factory that makes T-shirts. Granted they are all 100% cotton, but one patch you can make four or five patches out of and others are perfect size. The bag claims 200 patches, but I think you're more likly to get 300 or more and for $1.99 I can not complain. At their end of season they were selling off the patches so I got 10 bags of them and should last a while longer. I had to buy them, I ran out of old cotton socks...

I use theremnants that Wa-lMart sells also. Some of these remnants come from a company called Southern Bloomers. Southern Bloomers is an old time skivvy manufacturer who makes industrial strength femaleskivvies for the the US prison system.

Read an article in a shooting magazine about the owner and his son goingshooting and the son stopping to buy expensive cleaning patches-an idea was born. So they started selling the remnants that theyhad beengiving away and throwing away. Now they are big time into cleaning patches.

Goodwill sells bags of clean cotton rags for $1 a pound most of it flannel. I use that almost exclusively for all my projects.
