Unlike cotton sheets, the strength of linen lies in its loose weave. Because flax has its own structure, there is little need for densely knit threads to produce a smooth fabric. As such, linen never depends on thread count as a measure of quality. Most linen fabrics have a thread count of around 80 – 150, a much lower range than cotton sheets.
Natural fibers like cotton, linen, or silk are all very breathable, meaning it is easy for air to flow through them. This makes them popular among hot sleepers, as they won’t trap too much heat. (Be sure to choose a lower thread count cotton sheet, like a percale sheet, to promote cooling.)
