[Sca-cooks] Puddng cloth?

[Kingstaste]

She's talking about making sure the cabbage leaves are tight to prevent the
water getting in, although the water does get in to some extent, the meat
forms up and solidifies and doesn't go anywhere. If you have it loosely
wrapped, it can ooze out, just like a sausage in a casing with holes in it.

The pudding cloth I have is just a piece of densely woven cotton cloth, a
bit like a large handkerchief.  What she was using looked an awful lot like
cheesecloth.

What exactly is a pudding cloth? I always figured a cheesecloth or something
like a 
pillowcase would do but in the video with the Dutch Pudding the lady
stresses it
be tied securly so no water gets into the pudding.
Well, cheesecloth or linen would let lots of water in, so what is pudding
cloth and
how can I find it?
