Different materials will require different methods of washing and drying. Some are more involved than others, so it’s worth looking into the required care instructions for bedding before purchasing. For example, silk sheets may require special detergent and often must be hand washed or line dried. The same can be true for other delicate materials. 

Bed sheets are a specific type of bed linen that directly come into contact with your skin. Consisting of fitted and flat sheets, they provide a barrier between you and your mattress or duvet, ensuring a comfortable, hygienic sleep environment.
