Caring for Your Double Stitch Linen TENCEL™ Lyocell Sheet Sets

Scared to take the linen plunge? You’re not alone. While many love the “lived-in” look and feel of linen sheets, some people believe that it’s too difficult to take care of. But worry not: linen can be simple and carefree to maintain, especially with our unique Linen TENCEL™ Lyocell blend.

For our linen TENCEL™ lyocell sheets, we start with responsibly-sourced flax grown in France—the most ideal climate in the world for quality flax. We then blend with natural lyocell plant fibers, improving durability and offering a combination of moisture-wicking breathability and unparalleled comfort.

Unlike traditional linen, our linen TENCEL™ lyocell is resistant to wrinkles, pills, and a breeze to wash and keep looking brand new. In this blog, we'll guide you through simple and effective steps to maintain the quality of your sheets, ensuring they stay soft and comfortable for many nights to come.

Our Love for Linen TENCEL™ Lyocell

Our exclusive linen TENCEL™ lyocell blend goes beyond just comfort—it's a commitment to sustainability. Sourced with Mother Earth in mind, our sheets are crafted with responsibly–grown flax and plant fibers. Then, our patented finishing process and innovative sand-washing technique give them a vintage-faded look and a soft hand feel, right out of the box. Making every night's sleep a luxurious experience.

Yet, as luxe as they may feel (and they do!), our sheets are surprisingly easy to care for. To help, we’ve created a helpful list of Do’s and Don’ts to ensure your sheets serve you well for years.

Care Instructions

Do:

• Machine wash in cold water separately - Always wash your sheets separately to prevent color bleeding.
• Wash gently - Use a gentle or delicate wash cycle to maintain the integrity of the fabric.
• Tumble dry on low - Opt for a low-temperature setting when tumble drying to preserve the natural properties of the linen TENCEL™ lyocell blend.
• Iron gently when needed - If you enjoy the crisp look of ironed sheets, use a cool or warm iron.

Don'ts

• Don’t bleach - Bleach is not recommended for any Double Stitch products. Gentler cleaning methods will preserve the quality of the fabric.
• Don’t dry clean - Avoid dry cleaning, as the chemicals used may be too harsh on the linen TENCEL™ lyocell blend.
• Do Not Use Fabric Softeners - Skip the fabric softeners, including dryer sheets, as they can compromise the material's natural properties.
• Don’t mix colors when washing - To prevent color fading, wash sheets of similar colors together.
• Do not wash bedding with clothing - Keep your bedding separate from clothing to maintain the sheet quality and avoid damage.
• Do not use detergents containing chlorine - Choose a chlorine-free detergent to ensure the longevity of your sheets.
• Don’t over-dry - Avoid over-drying to prevent unnecessary wear and tear.
• Avoid direct sunlight - Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may affect the color and quality of your sheets.

Extend the Life of Your Bedding

In addition to following these care instructions, here are a few extra tips to ensure your Double Stitch linen TENCEL™ lyocell sheet sets stand the test of time:

Rotate Your Sheets:

To promote even wear, consider rotating between two or more sets of sheets. This helps maintain the freshness and longevity of each set.

Spot Clean When Possible:

If you notice a small stain, spot cleaning can be an effective way to address it without subjecting the entire sheet to unnecessary washing.

Air Dry Occasionally:

While tumble drying is suitable, occasional air drying can help preserve the fabric's natural properties. Simply hang your sheets to dry for a breath of fresh air.

Store with Care:

When not in use, store your linen TENCEL™ lyocell sheet sets in a cool, dry place. Avoid cramming them into tight spaces to prevent wrinkles and maintain their pristine appearance.

Your Double Stitch linen TENCEL™ lyocell sheets are an investment in quality sleep and sustainable living. By following these simple instructions and additional tips, you ensure that your bedding remains as beautiful and comfortable as the day you brought it home. With a little care, your Double Stitch sheets will continue to enhance your sleep experience for years to come.

Rest easy and enjoy the unmatched comfort of Double Stitch.
