What does the thread count for bed linens mean?

Answered By Editor


Thread count refers to the woven threads in one square inch of the fabric. Thread counts consist of the weft and the warp of a fabric, ranging from 300, 400, 800 or even 1000 threads per square inch. Warps are the vertical threads and wefts are the horizontal threads woven as one. Generally, the higher the thread count, the more durable the product, but the quality of the fiber itself also influences the quality of the sheet, regardless of the thread count.
