“Thread count” of fabric is the weave density calculated based on the total number of warp and weft threads per inch of fabric. That is, if any inch of fabric is woven from 100 warp and 100 weft yarns, then the weaving density of that piece of fabric is 200. Usually, it can be said that the higher the density, the softer and denser the fabric. and high durability.
According to Professor of Textiles Preethi Gopinath of Parsons New York and Professor Shannon Maher of the Fashion Institute of Technology, cotton fabrics are usually divided into 2 types. popular:

The truth about luxury bedding sets made from super-high density fabrics
