If you compare linen vs cotton sheets in terms of breathability, another major difference emerges — linen will keep you much cooler at night because of its longer fibers and, therefore, looser weave. Air can pass through linen more easily, keeping your body cool. Cotton, as previously discussed, can also be perfect for warm sleepers (in the case of percale bedding), but linen definitely has the edge over it.

Sheets, like every other element in the bedroom, contribute to the overall design of the space. Mixing designs on a small, medium, and large size in the same color family is a simple method to begin experimenting. You can also check out some different prints to add an interesting element to your décor.
