Sarcolemma is the cell membrane that encloses each muscle (which is also known as a muscle fibre). Endomysium is connective tissue that wraps each individual muscle fibre.Perimysium is connective tissue that wraps bundles of muscle fibres - the "bundles" being known as fasicles. Epimysium is connective tissue that wraps the whole muscle.Fascia (or "deep fascia") is a layer of thickened connective tissue that covers the entire muscle and is located over the layer of epimysium.
