Silk production dates back far in human history and has long been regarded as a luxury fabric. It is a strong, durable material that is also lusciously soft and shiny. Silk is also very breathable, because it is a natural material, and generally maintains a cool temperature. This makes it a popular choice for hot sleepers. Additionally, silk can be beneficial for hair and skin, as it won’t absorb moisture or cause hair breakage like other materials, since it is so smooth.
To choose bedsheets that won't pill, you have to pay attention to the quality of the fabric as well as the construction of the sheet. Look for bedsheets with a high thread count, as this indicates a tighter weave and helps prevent pilling. Also consider the ply count of the fabric, which refers to the number of yarns that are twisted together to form a single thread. Single-layer fabrics are generally smoother and less prone to pilling than multi-layer fabrics.
