Do you ever get tired of sleeping on the same old boring cotton sheets? Experimenting with new textures, materials and fabrics in your sheets can result in an entirely new sleeping experience. One particularly popular option has always been a set of jersey sheets.
In fact, jersey sheets are usually made of cotton, with most being made of a pure cotton or a cotton blend. Instead of traditional woven cotton though, jersey sheets are made out of a jersey knit, which results in a much softer feel, like brushed cotton. Many who have grown to prefer jersey over traditional cotton percale sheets liken the experience of sleeping on jersey to the experience of sleeping curled inside your most favorite and softest T-shirt.
The coziness, comfort and softness of jersey sheets will probably always be their biggest selling points. Once many people switch, they remain devotees forever. But another plus to these linens is that even though they are super comfortable, they are also incredibly easy to maintain. To the surprise of many, jersey sheets are machine washable. This added bonus creates an enormous incentive for the busy moms and dads and even college students who need to launder their linens. Being able to wash and dry the sheets saves much money and time in the long run. More importantly, you will never even need to iron them.
Because they feel more like a sweatshirt than the traditional cotton sheets that you are used to, you will probably not be surprised to learn that jersey sheets are extremely warm and toasty during the winter months. They will keep you comfortably snug no matter how low the mercury on the thermometer dips outside. And since they are so soft and do not pill up after use, they are the perfect alternative to flannel sheets.
With a toasty warmth in winter, a nearly effortless routine to keep them fresh and clean and a softness and comfort that is unparalleled, jersey sheets are a bedding and linen purchase you should definitely consider for every bed in your home.
