Cotton yarn is prized for the same qualities that make finished cotton products and fabrics popular. Yarn is typically purchased for the purpose of creating a finished product - a blanket or some item of clothing. These then have the same characteristics as woven cotton fabrics.

• Hand Towels: These measure between 16x30 and 18x28 inches. They are just what their name says they are: towels for drying hands. These can range from utilitarian to very fancy and embroidered, for use in a guest bath.
• Bath Towels: These measure between 27x50 and 30x56 inches. These are probably the most commonly used size of bath towel.
• Oversize bath towel: These are 30x56 inches, just slightly smaller than the smallest size of bath sheet.

I'm so fond of bath sheets that I've given them their own special section. Please click on the tab to see cotton bath sheets.

The first thing to look for if you want truly luxurious Egyptian cotton is to check the percentage of Egyptian cotton used to make the product. In the United States, manufacturers are required to disclose the exact percentage of the cotton content. The higher the percentage of Egyptian cotton, the softer and more durable the product.

When purchasing linens, the next thing to look for is the thread count. Thread count is simply how many threads of cotton are woven lengthwise and widthwise into an inch of fabric. A good quality thread count of any cotton usually starts at about 200. Fabrics made with a lower thread count will be thinner, less absorbent and less durable. A 400-count sheet made of 100% Egyptian cotton would be truly luxurious - and truly expensive! However, it would also last longer. When evaluating the cost of items made from less-expensive cottons, take durability into consideration. Sometimes it's less expensive in the long run to invest in the higher-quality item that last longer.

Cotton is a natural fiber that is spun into yarn or thread, producing a soft, breathable fabric that is the most widely used natural-fiber cloth used in clothing today. It's prized for its soft texture and cool breathability; because it's grown from a plant, it's also a "green" product from a natural, renewable source. As a fiber, food and feed crop, all parts of the cotton plant are utilized. Cottonseed (extracted from crushed cotton seeds) is a common component in many food products and is extensively used in the preparation of such snack foods as crackers, cookies and chips. The cotton seed meal and hulls are used as livestock, poultry and fish feed and as fertilizer.

History of cotton

Cotton has been spun, woven, and dyed since prehistoric times. The earliest cultivation of cotton discovered thus far in the Americas occurred in Mexico, some 5,000 years ago, but evidence of its use in more ancient civilizations goes back much further, to the 4th millennium B.C., in the Indus region (now known as India).

Organic Cotton

Organic cotton is cotton that is grown without insecticide or pesticide. If this is important to you, make sure any cotton yarn or cloth or finished items you purchase contain the word "organic."

Why you might prefer to wear 100% cotton products

Many people prefer to wear 100% cotton products and/or use them in their homes, rather than synthetic fabrics. There are many reasons for this:

• cotton is lightweight and breathable, which helps regulate body temperature in hot weather
• cotton is hypoallergenic, making it an excellent choice for people with sensitive skin
• cotton is naturally soft
• cotton is dust-mite resistant - for people with asthma and allergies, it's the first choice for linens and other bedding, as well as clothing
• cotton is the only fiber that becomes stronger when it's wet
• cotton is a biodegradable, renewable resource

These are some of the reasons we prefer cotton. Our goal is to bring you the largest variety of cotton sale items available. If you love cotton like we do, you'll appreciate the experience we can provide at CottonSale.com!
