Anatomy of our sheets
What makes aLinenbundle sheet?
At Linenbundle, we knew the handfeel of good bedlinen, but we also knew what not-so-good bedlinen felt like. Focusing our expertise in the industry on making the BEST product possible has resulted in the most beautiful premium, super soft sheets.
Single Ply Cotton
Long-lasting sheets are our priority at Linenbundle. We achieve this, in part, by using single-ply yarn, because it produces the finest, strongest threads.
Less is more with Single Ply, as Multi-ply yarns are actually weaker, lower-grade cotton fibres meshed together to create a false durability or strength.
Single Ply can only be spun out from long-staple cotton, which in turn guarantees the softest, lightest and longest lasting sheets.
Long Staple Cotton
For the strongest & finest sheets, we use long-staple cotton. As the name suggests, long-staple means longer fibres, which are spun together to produce the smoothest sheets.
Alternative or shorter fibres create a more coarse fabric as they don’t always bind in the weave & tend to stick out creating a coarser texture.
Perfect Thread Count
Thread count is the number of threads per square inch of fabric. So if you’re looking at a 500 thread count bedding set like one of ours, this means there would be 250 threads woven horizontally and 250 vertically woven threads in each square inch.
Be warned, a higher thread count does not mean a higher quality sheet.
Thread counts in excess of 500 are commonly constructed of the‘multiple-ply’ cotton we mentioned above, so whilst the thread count is higher, the material can be of a much lower grade quality.
We've found 500 to be the perfect thread count when made using Single Ply, Long Staple cotton.
