Crisp, cool and breathable
There’s nothing nicer than getting into freshly laundered sheets at the end of the day. For that nostalgic ‘dried on a sunny clothesline’ feel, choose sheets made from pure cotton percale. Read on to learn more about cotton percale and our bed linen collection made from this cool, crisp and breathable fabric.
What is cotton percale?
Cotton percale is a pure cotton fabric which is created by tightly weaving one thread over and one thread under. The term ‘percale’ refers to the square weave created by weaving threads vertically and horizontally. This results in a fabric that is strong in both directions making it perfect for sheeting.
