PLUS THREAD COUNT BED SHEETS
Thread count refers to the number of threads, both vertical and horizontal, in a
one-inch square of fabric. Thread count is affected by a number of factor
including ply and thickness of the threads used. The ply of the fabric refers to
how many threads are wrapped together into a single thread. Single-ply fabrics
use threads on their own, while two-ply fabrics twist two pieces together into a
stronger thread, as well as doubling the thread count of the fabric. Using finer
threads also allows for more thread to fit in a square inch. Finer thread often
results in smoother, softer fabrics, part of the reason high thread count
fabrics are considered more desirable than fabrics with a low thread count.
