We see this question all the time: Are Jersey knit sheets more stretchy than woven ones?

June 18, 2023

THE SHORT ANSWER IS YES, AND HERE IS WHY:

One of the simplest ways to distinguish between woven and knitted fabrics is by stretching them. While a knitted fabric will stretch, a woven one will not.

Consider if your skin lacked the ability to flex and stretch with your muscles. It would impede your movement. Similarly, the firmness and surface tension of densely woven sheets cannot adapt to your contemporary mattress, no matter how high their thread count. Sure, they may be glossy and have a nice curb appeal, but honestly, would you rather sleep in a $1,200 stiff suit or your favorite T-shirt?

In contrast, EGINO® Jersey knit fitted sheets behave like the skin. Constructed using a unique knitting process rather than a traditional weaving process, Jersey Knit textiles are looser and have far greater stretch properties due to their fundamentally different manufacturing method. The best examples, again, are your most comfortable T-shirt or leggings.

However, the real distinction lies in the innovative yarn composition. Extremely fine spun, long-staple Mako Cotton fibers make the yarn soft and smooth, preventing it from "pilling". Moreover, the addition of 4% Elastane (Lycra®), a fiber that can stretch up to 8 times its original length, creates a uniform and stunningly all-directional elasticity in the fabric, not just in the edges of the sheet.
