What about linen bedding?

Linen fabric is woven from a natural plant fiber flax twisted into threads. It has good drapability and hygroscopicity, and the surface fibers are smooth and clean, which can inhibit the growth of bacteria.
Linen fabric is the earliest natural plant fiber used by humans, with a history of more than 10,000 years. Flax is a kind of pure natural fiber, because of its obvious characteristics such as sweat absorption, excellent air permeability, wide and harmless to human body, it is more and more valued by human beings.
Linen fabric is a rare natural fiber, accounting for only 1.5% of the total natural fibers. Because of her natural, ancient and noble quality, she is known as the "Queen of Fiber". The history of the development of flax is almost as famous as the history of human civilization. Ancient Egypt was the starting point for the development of linen. Ten thousand or twenty thousand years ago, the ancient Egyptians began to plant flax in the Nile Valley. It can be inferred from the ancient inventions that linen weaving appeared at the latest from 5,000 to 4,000 BC, and looms had already appeared at that time. The study of the Egyptian pharaoh's tomb shows that the weaving level of linen was already very high at that time, and the pharaohs had already begun to use linen at that time. Men in ancient Egypt were bare-chested regardless of their positions, and they wore wrap-around aprons made of linen called "Loin Cloth". French called this linen loincloth "Chanti". (shenti) and women mainly wear tight-fitting high-waisted straight linen skirts called "Tunika", which are hung on the shoulders or tied with belts, and have various styles. Because it was difficult to dye linen at that time, Egyptian clothing was mainly white. more common. During the Neolithic Age, the Egyptians introduced flax to countries along the Mediterranean Sea. Since the Middle Ages, flax has spread from Switzerland to France, Britain, Belgium and other countries. By the beginning of the tenth century, flax fiber began to circulate in the market as a commodity.
Therefore, the moisture absorption and perspiration performance of the linen fabric is very good, even if you sweat, it will not feel sticky, so it is more suitable for summer use, and it will have a breathable and cool feeling. In addition, the linen four-piece suit can make it easier to fall asleep, and because it can reduce muscle tension, you will feel rested in sleep.
However, linen fabric also has some disadvantages. For example, the thickness of the warp and weft threads is not very uniform, and there will be some plush on the surface of the fabric, so the hand feeling of linen fabric will be rough, which is only suitable for use in some areas, not suitable for For personal use. If you want to use a four-piece suit made of linen, you can choose a cotton and linen fabric blended with linen and cotton as raw materials. The production process of this fabric is green, natural, environmentally friendly and healthy. In this way, you can not only feel the comfort of pure cotton fabrics but also enjoy the benefits of linen fabrics.
