So your old sheets have worn off and you are now looking for a new sheet sets for your home. So what you are looking up for while purchasing the sheets is generally the colors, designs, styles and fabric of the material. When you look into the fabric of the material you want to know whether it is made of cotton, flannel, polyester and synthetic. But do you know the most important part of a sheet set is the thread count. The whole softness and comfort that the material will provide to you depends up on the density of the thread. In layman terms, a thread count is the number of vertical and horizontal threads that is used to weave one square inch of fabric.
The thread count of a sheet may range from 80 to 1000 while 200 is the average count for most blankets. The higher is the range of the count the softer and more durable is the material. The number or the density of the thread count also brings a great difference in the price of the fabric. The sheets with higher thread count are more expensive and in the long they are more an economic purchase when the comfort and longevity of the material is taken into consideration. If you are looking for a sheet set for your kid then you should choose kids sheet sets that are made of higher thread count. These kids sheet sets can be a bit expensive but then they are for your own loving one.
Whenever you are purchasing any design of sheet set always verify the tag where all the information about the quality and material is available. Pay attention to the type of care you require to give to your blanket. Some blankets are machine washable while some can be only dry clean. Sheet with higher thread counts generally requires dry cleaning.
