Is this set soft or scratchy out of the bag?

The lyocell content makes it softer than pure linen, but expect some crispness at first. It softens with each wash.

Yes. Linen and lyocell are both breathable and moisture-wicking, so the set suits hot sleepers better than cotton sateen or microfiber.

How should I wash it?

Machine wash cool on a gentle cycle and tumble dry low or line dry. High heat shrinks linen and roughens lyocell.

The four pieces are a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and two pillowcases. Check the size label, since fitted-sheet depth varies by set.

It is softer and less expensive-feeling in hand, with less of linen's crisp texture. Pure linen is more durable and more rumpled.

Fitted-sheet depth is the thing to check before buying. Confirm the pocket depth matches your mattress plus any topper.
