Ribbed Towels

JERSEY KNIT While Jersey knit sheets are still made from either natural or synthetic cotton, where they differ is the way they are produced. Instead of being woven like traditional cotton sheets, they are knitted. This gives the sheets a natural stretch and extra warmth. Keep in mind that jersey knit sheets do not have a thread count. Instead, the quality of the sheet can be measured by its weight per square yard.

Pima cotton is a rare type of cotton fiber grown in Peru, Australia, and the US. A relative of the Egyptian cotton plant, Pima cotton boasts of extra-long fibers - up to 50% longer than average - coming from the fluffiest part of the plant. Pima cotton bed sheets are known to be durable yet resistant to wrinkles.

POLYESTER Polyester sheets are known for their durability and stain resistant qualities. These sheets are made from a synthetic fiber which is commonly found in many bedding products. They are also wrinkle resistant, but are not as soft and breathable as other fabric options. However, Polyester sheets tend to be exceptionally cheaper than traditional cotton sheets, making them a popular choice for many people.
