Percale sheets (pronounced “per-kail”) are made with cotton. These have a plain weave — one yarn over, one yarn under — that creates a matte, crisp finish. These sheets get softer with each wash and are best for hot sleepers and warm weather. They aren’t wrinkle-resistant, so it’s best to remove them from the dryer immediately following the end of the cycle. 

Egyptian cotton can be spun into percale, which makes the softest, most luxurious type of bed sheets. Percale is extremely lightweight and perfect for those looking for cooling sheets since it doesn’t retain heat. It has a natural matte finish that results in a clean, crisp look.
