The Secrets of Egyptian Cotton

Well, it’s known as the best cotton not only due to its strength, but its total softness. The longer fibres of the cotton make an extremely fine yarn that is resistant to stress and incredibly strong. As a general rule of thumb, lighter feeling bedding will have a thread count of around 200. Meanwhile, that beautiful feeling you get when sliding into a luxury bed spread at a hotel? That’s all thanks to a 1000 thread count. It’s also much softer, stronger and longer lasting than your typical cotton. 

What is Egyptian Cotton fabric used for?

Egyptian Cotton is well known for premium bedding sets and occasionally towels. But those are not the only uses. Due to its durability, it is also used for other home textiles like cushions or blankets. But if you’re lucky, you might find the occasional clothing item in stores.

Disadvantages

There are some disadvantages to Egyptian Cotton though. When it comes to washing, it can be damaged by softener or hot washes. Make sure to read the care labels prior to doing a load.

Softness

It can take a few washes to reach maximum softness, but keep trying and you will not be disappointed.

Other care:

It is also more prone to wrinkles. So it might be time to whip out the iron if the perfectly smooth bedroom picture for Instagram is what you’re looking for!
