percale

"Percal" is a type of closely woven plain-weave fabric, usually made from cotton or a cotton blend. It is known for its smooth texture, durability, and crisp feel. Percal fabric is commonly used in bed linens, such as sheets and pillowcases, because it is breathable and comfortable. The yarn count of percale typically exceeds 180 threads per square inch, contributing to its tight weave and matte finish.
