Thread count - it's a term we often associate with the promise of soft, luxurious bedding. But what if we told you that there's more to the story than just those numbers? 

Understanding Thread Count

Thread count is simply the number of threads woven into one square inch of fabric. It includes both horizontal (weft) and vertical (warp) threads. The common belief is that a higher thread count equals better quality and comfier sheets. 

The Myth of More Threads

Here's the myth-buster: A higher thread count doesn't always equal superior sheets. ?In reality, several factors come together to create the ultimate bedding experience.

Quality Matters

Manufacturers might use high thread counts to lure you in, but here's the catch...

The type and quality of fibers, the weaving technique, and the finishing process are all bed-making superheroes. They team up to determine how your sheets feel and how long they last. 

Beware of the Thread Tricks

Some manufacturers play tricks by using multi-ply yarns. For instance, they might say you have a 600-thread count, but it's actually made from 300 two-ply threads. Sneaky, right? This doesn't guarantee softer or sturdier sheets. 

The Secret to True Luxury

So, what's the real secret to luxury bedding? It's all about the quality of the fibers. At Befitted Bedding, we choose premium, long-staple cotton to ensure your sleep is heavenly. 

Look Beyond the Count

For the best bedding experience, don't get caught up in numbers alone. Consider the type of fiber (like Egyptian or Supima cotton), the weave (percale or sateen), and the finishing touches. It's about the overall quality, not just the thread count. 

At Befitted Bedding, we're here to break the myths and provide you with the true luxury you deserve. Choose quality, choose comfort, choose Befitted! ✨
