cotton fitted sheet

While fitted sheets are made from a variety of materials, cotton fitted sheets are the most commonly used bedding material around the world. Cotton remains the most popular sheeting fabric due to its comfort, durability, and breathability.

Cotton is a natural fiber that gets its strength from spinning the fiber into yarn and then into a fabric. Cotton is soft, has good insulation properties, and absorbs moisture fairly well. Additionally, cotton can be manufactured relatively easily compared to linen. Cotton retains heat and allows cool air to pass through, especially in summer, making it a good choice for almost any climate. Interestingly, it can be blended with rayon and other materials, which can affect the feel and even the weight.
