Linen bed sheets are valued for their natural, textured feel and ability to stay cool in warm weather.
When choosing sheets based on the thread count, keep in mind there are a few materials that can have a smaller number of threads and still be very durable. For example, linen sheets generally have a low thread count, so a good quality linen sheet can have a thread count of 120, but a cotton sheet would need upwards of 500 to be good quality.

As well as the fabric, the weave that your bed linen fabric is made with will also affect the feel. Fabrics are woven from threads or yarns. These can be woven together in different ways to change how your sheets feel. Sateen and Percale weaves are the top choice for good quality cotton bed linen.
Meanwhile, if you’re shopping on a budget and believe silky smooth sheets are non-negotiable, then 100% cotton sheets may be a more preferable option. After all, their lower price tag can make up for the frequent anticipated changes through the years. Be sure though that your cotton sheets are made purely what’s on the label for you to fully realize the benefits for yourself.
