It pertains to lens cleaning. Ted has advised the use of a well-worn portion of cotton underpants (worn from sitting). Someone else, I think, mentioned use of cotton undershirt material. Undershirts are generally of knit fabric, the stretchy stuff. But underpants may be knit, as in jockey shorts, or woven, as in cotton broadcloth (the non-stretchy stuff). Is one preferable over the other for safe and effective lens cleaning, or are the two fabrics equally tried and recommended? I do plan to use the advice.
