It's also a good idea to wash your bed sheets according to the bedsheets manufacturer's instructions and avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these may cause pilling.
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.
