Is European linen good for hot sleepers?

Yes. Linen is breathable and wicks moisture, so it sleeps cooler than cotton sateen. It feels crisp at first and softens with washing.

Does the set include pillowcases?

Yes. The double set includes a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and pillowcases in the matching print.

Will the linen shrink in the wash?

Linen can shrink slightly on the first wash. Wash cold and tumble low, and the fit settles after the first cycle.

How does this compare with plain linen sheets?

The linen quality is comparable to plain rivals; the difference is the botanical print and embroidery, which cost more than solid linen.

Does it fit a full-size mattress?

It is made for full and double beds. Check your mattress depth, since deep mattresses can strain the fitted sheet.

Our take on the Garnet Hill Chelsea Garden Heirloom European Linen Sheet Set, Double

The Garnet Hill Chelsea Garden sheet set is European linen, stonewashed for softness, with a botanical print and embroidered detail. It is a double set with a flat sheet, fitted sheet and pillowcases. Linen sleeps cool and gets softer with each wash, but it wrinkles and feels crisp at first. Rivals in linen offer plainer weaves; this one stands out for its print and embroidery. Owners of Garnet Hill linen praise the weight and breathability, though some find the print busier than expected.
