Is linen worth it over cotton for a fitted sheet?

Linen is cooler and more breathable than cotton and lasts longer, but it costs more and wrinkles. Choose it if you sleep hot or like a relaxed look; choose cotton if you want a crisp, smooth sheet.

Will it fit a deep mattress?

Yes. It is made for mattresses up to 16 inches deep, so it suits most pillow-top and mattress-topper setups. On a thin mattress the extra fabric may look loose.

How should I wash it?

Machine wash cool and tumble dry low or line dry. Skip high heat and bleach, which shrink and weaken linen. Expect softening over the first several washes.

Does the stripe run across or along the bed?

The Kemptown Stripe runs horizontally across the width of the sheet. Check the brand's product photos for how it sits on a twin bed before ordering.

When is the best time to buy?

Piglet in Bed discounts linen during seasonal sales, often around Black Friday and mid-year. Outside sales, compare the price here against the brand's own site before buying.

Our take on the Piglet in Bed Kemptown Stripe Linen Fitted Sheet

A stonewashed European linen fitted sheet in Piglet in Bed's Kemptown Stripe, an ivory-and-neutral ticking stripe. It is cut for a twin bed and fits mattresses up to 16 inches deep, with elastic all around the hem. Linen sleeps cool in summer and softens with every wash, which is the main reason people pay more for it than for cotton percale. No current price was supplied for this listing, so compare it against the brand's other linen sheets before buying.
