Hi team,
Sorry, I am not sure if this actually relates to Homesteading. I just can't find any good home economics forums. I assumed that home steading probably involves some aspect of home economics...
I am a bit confused with bedsheets. Different sources are saying different things about Percale/Sateen and thread counts. Not only that, but apparently "Egyptian cotton" can be a very misleading label as only long staple egyptian cotton is high quality.
I wanted to buy good quality sheets for my girlfriend. But I can't figure out if I should be going for percale (because I read it is cooler on the body than sateen) or Sateen (because the fancy sheet store and my mother said that the best sheets are Sateen). Then there is the confusing situation of thread count... with some sources saying low thread count is better while the store person took me to the high thread count section for the high quality sheets...
Any advice?
Does anyone know of a good Home Economics forum on the internet that has a large online community?
