Cotton is a staple fabric spun from the fibers of cotton plants. People around the world have been cultivating it for thousands of years. One of the earliest bits of cotton is at least 7,000 years old and was found in Mexico. In Egypt and Pakistan, people were weaving cotton thread into clothing in 3,000 BC. And in the 18th century, the British first found a way to spin cotton into textile with machinery.

The weave pattern of bed sheets can also impact their texture and appearance. Common weave patterns include percale (crisp and cool), sateen (soft and silky), and flannel (warm and cozy).
