This might sound like a stupid question, but I cannot seem to find anywhere that sells flannels (face cloths) in Sweden. Google translate assures me that they do exist in Sweden (tvättlapp), but I cannot find any sold at my local supermarket (MAXI) or at an Apoteket. Is there somewhere else I should try?

You can find cloth flannels in shops that sell towels - for example - Hemtex, Åhléns or department stores etc

you could convert a towel into about a dozen face cloths?

I have found the same problem... the Hemtex ones are small hand towels. My other half looks at me strangely when I try to explain that they aren't what I want. Strangely comforting to know I am not alone tongue.gif

I'm not sure where you can get them but I know they do exist. They certainly can't be found in the baking aisle next to the extra fint mjöl.
