The two prime reasons for purchasing flannel bedsheets

Hearing the word ‘’flannel’’, you might start thinking about the giant folk hero, Paul Bunyan, and the other rough and tough lumberjacks, or the Scottish highlanders might demand your attention since the material first originated in Scotland, but when it is to flannel, used in the bedsheets, they mostly comprise poly-cotton blend or are made using 100% cotton. The noted flannel clothing manufacturers today, are making them available in plaids, prints, and different solid colors. 

When you first start witnessing the change in weather, with fall and winters approaching, that is the time when you should start using these functional pieces. Why? Because of the following two prime reasons:

Very cozy and soft

Quite interestingly, flannel fabrics first came into existence in Europe in the 17th C. At that time, carded wool or worsted yarn were used to make them. In the modern era, a lot has changed. Using various high-quality materials, the manufacturers construct the flannel sheets and give them a brushed nap, that you can feel when you touch both sides. When man-made and cotton fibers are combined in flannel, the sheet gets a longer lifespan, which is otherwise not possible with just cotton. It is in fact, because of this brushed sides feature that you get a cozy, soft feel against your skin, and this is exactly what makes them ideal for the cold months.

Breathable and warm

The brushed surface that you find in flannel sheets is what helps the sheets trap body heat and air, while still making it easy for your skin to breathe. In comparison to fleece and other man-made fibers, the flannel sheets work best to keep you warm. Don’t worry, using them you don’t wake up all sweaty and hot. Constructed out of either a twill or plain weave, the brushing procedure during its manufacturing leads to the formation of tiny cells, and this traps the air successfully. Being a pretty much absorbent material, the flannel bedsheets also come with the ability to wick moisture from your body.
