Caring for Bed Sheets: Regular washing is vital. Depending on the material, most bed sheets should be washed in warm or cool water with a gentle detergent and either air-dried or tumble dried on a low setting. Avoid harsh chemicals or high heat, as they can break down fibers.
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.
Supima or Pima cotton was created in the USA to compete with Egyptian cotton. It is grown in the USA. Like Egyptian cotton, it is made from a long staple fibre which gives the cotton its premium properties.
