Jersey:Jersey is a common knit fabric used for sheets. Known for its soft, stretchy feel, jersey is also very easy to care for. This makes it especially popular for kids’ bedding. Jersey is commonly described as having a “T-shirt material feel,” which makes sense since most T-shirts are cotton jersey knit!
With a lower quality than both Pima and Egyptian, this short-staple cotton is the most common variety you’ll find. Labels that read “100% cotton” are typically Upland, and while still fairly durable, aren’t nearly as soft as other types.
