what is brushed cotton bedding?

Brushed cotton is the natural fibre fabric that you know and love, taken up a notch by a particular finishing technique known as brushing. A fine-tooth metal brush is rubbed over one or both sides of the cotton, fluffing up the fibres to create a textured, napped finish. It’s luxuriously soft and warm, but because it’s cotton, it’s still breathable. This process makes brushed cotton bedding an ideal choice for year-round comfort, but especially in winter when the weather is cooler and you want a snugger feel.

It’s used for casual clothes, baby blankets, and of course, bedding. Because it’s so soft, it can be ideal for people with skin sensitivities like eczema, too.

how to wash brushed cotton bedding.

Brushed cotton bedding is at risk from bobbling or pilling, which is when the fibres in the fabric break apart and knot together. However, this is easily avoided with proper care and maintenance.

First, make sure you’re spot cleaning stains as they happen, or pre-treating them before you pop your bedding in the washing machine. This will allow you to use a gentler washing cycle and protect the brushed cotton fibres.

Secondly, make sure you’re washing your sheets on a regular basis. Your brushed cotton bedding will come into contact with dirt and oil naturally as it’s used, which can lead to wear and damage over time. Run it through the wash fortnightly at least, and you’ll be helping your brushed cotton stay shipshape for longer.

When you do wash your sheets, make sure that you’re washing like with like – bunging your sheets in with clothes that have zips and other hardware can catch and rub on your brushed cotton bedding, which can cause it to bobble. Wash your bedding on a gentle cycle, and allow to air dry for best results.
