Cotton sheets are primarily distinguished by two types of weaves: percale and sateen. Percale, often referred to as plain weave, has a crisp and breathable quality.

These weaves have unique properties that affect comfort and durability, making it essential to understand the distinctions when selecting cotton sheets.
