Percale:Percale is one of the most commonly used weaves for sheets. Also sometimes known as a plain weave, percale is a one yarn over, one yarn under weave. That means the warp (lengthwise threads) and weft (horizontal threads) will be equal in number.
However, the uniform structure of percale cotton also leaves it more prone to wrinkling. Meanwhile, sateen sheets practice a one-over-three-under weave to produce tightly knit, silky soft sheets. But over time, this smoothness may fade and be prone to snags. Percale and sateen weaves are top-notch options depending on your needs.
