How sheets are weaved has a direct influence on how they feel to the touch. Percale is lightweight and tightly woven, resulting in crisp, cool bedding. In contrast, microfiber's super-tight, dense weave makes it wrinkle-resistant, extra-soft, and water-resistant due to its super-tight, dense weave. Other weaves to consider are satin, which is ultra-soft and glossy, and flannel, which has a warm feel ideal for chilly weather.
