Flannel Fabric for Bed Linen
Flannel, brushed cotton flannel or flannelette are all terms used for bedding that is made from cotton where the fabric is treated differently to create a thicker softer feel. Flannel fabric is made by weaving fat cotton yarn into fabric then brushing the surface to create a fluffy texture. As the weave of the fabric is tighter, flannel fabric holds the warmth in, keeping you cosy through the night. Flannel bedding feels buttery soft and snuggly to sleep in, making it perfect for the cooler months of autumn and winter.

Brushed Cotton Knit Fabric for Sleepwear
Brushed cotton is a type of flannel fabric which is only brushed on one side. The brushed cotton knit fabric that sleepwear is made from is slightly thinner flannel fabric than what flannel bed linen is made from. This makes brushed cotton garments easy to wear, breathable and warm. Made from brushed organic cotton knit, this sustainable fabric has a slight stretch to it and feels wonderfully soft against your skin.
