More information about product:
- Yarn Size Vs Thread Count:
- All things being equal, (cotton type, mill, ply and weave), higher thread counts imply a smoother, silkier, and often more expensive fabric. But this can be misleading...
- Yarn size is stated as number, like 40s, 80s and 100s for most bed linen. The number refers to the yarn size (100s is finer than 40s) and is defined using micrometres . 100s is 17 and 80s is 18 .
- The thread count is the number of thread per square inch of fabric. For a given yarn size, a higher thread count implies a finer thread (sometimes).
- Because its thread is finer, 80s fabric has a higher thread count than 40s, and 100s fabric has a higher thread count than 80s, and so on. If you ask us what the thread-count of a fabric is, we will probably tell you something like "100s" ecause that number is easy to understand even though it's not a literal measure of thread-count. The yarn size (and its length per pound) is a consistent measure. It does not vary by the tightness of the weave or the counting method.

- Yarns, Ply and Counting:
- Ply is the number of yarns that are twisted together to make a single thread. Fabrics can either be two-ply or single ply. Two-ply means that two yarns are twisted together to make a single thread woven into the fabric. Two-ply fabrics may be superior to single-ply fabrics, but the smaller yarn size may make them less durable.
- Some manufacturers will count the individual yarns as they calculate the "thread count", so you may not be getting any extra thread just by buying higher thread-count material. Thread counts of 400 or more are likely to use multi-ply threads, which are more expensive and less durable (with limited benefits).

- Compact Vs Normal Yarns:A compact yarn is a higher quality yarn that is smoother and finer than a normal yarn. Fabrics woven from compact yarns often feel finer and smoother than you would expect based on their yarn size alone. For example, a 100s single-ply compact fabric will feel like a 160s two-ply fabric made from normal yarns.

- Warp and Weft:Warp threads run vertically. Weft yarns run horizontally. A fabric will often use different types of threads in the warp vs. weft directions. The total count of yarns (not threads) used in both waft and weft are used by some manufacturers as the thread-count.
