#none of that percale

[woodelf68]

I was more like this at age 20; I still had the health and energy to go shopping and make crafts to enhance my living space. By 30, health issues were rapidly approaching the point where I wasn't going to have the ability to care about stuff like that anymore.

I'm turning 30 this month, and for some reason have become suddenly interested in material possessions. like what if,,,,,,,,my couch was nice. what if my sheets were nice. is this what happens to you??

Please Don't Go

Sunshine shone through the curtains as the sun slowly rose through the trees across the compound, illuminating the room with their bluish hue. 

Groaning quietly, I winced at the bright light and tucked my face down into my pillow, wrapping up in the pile of blankets. “I keep forgetting to order those damn black out curtains,” I mumbled into the percale fabric, nuzzling deeper into the warmth.

Soft chuckling sounded in my ear, a thick arm throwing itself across my back as Bucky turned to embrace my lump in the blankets. I could hear him clearing the sleep out of his throat as he tried to find my face, his hand patting over my form,

“Good morning, wife,” he growled in his sleepy voice. 

I couldn’t help but grin wide into the pillow, picturing his sleepy face as he struggled to open his eyes. Ever since our wedding day so many years ago, my soldier had whispered the same thing to me every morning, wrapping me close and showering me with kisses. I never grew tired of it, looked forward to seeing his handsome drowsy face.

Wiggling up and out of the mass of blankets, I popped my head out meerkat style and smiled. “Good morning, my darling,” I whispered back, offering my lips for a kiss, which he quickly complied. I only winced slightly at the spiky stubble, my fingers scritching at his chin.

“You know, Stark probably could install one of those tinted windows,” he mumbled, rubbing his eye with his flesh hand. Focusing again on me, he grinned. “You know, the ones that brighten when you wake up? Shuri had one set up for me in Wakanda.”

My stomach sank slightly at the memory. It seemed so long ago, decades even. Helen Choi could only do so much for us, the Winter Soldier seeming to be a permanent part of my lover’s mind and her cradle could only penetrate skin deep. All seemed hopeless, the others afraid for my well being every second I spent with Bucky… when suddenly an adorable teenager sashayed into our world, announcing she was from Wakanda and could heal Bucky, no problem at all.

Things had turned upside down for a while. Learning of the technological marvel in the supposedly poor country hidden away in Africa shook the foundations of science. King T’Challa and his impressive homeland opened their borders and the world gladly took from them whatever help was given. Tony almost lost his mind, him and Shuri spending hours in her lab, joking and teasing each other, trying to one up the other with random facts and riddles. The palace at Wakanda became a second home to the Avengers for a time as they watched over their comrade in arms.

But as for me, as Pepper Potts' hard working assistant, I was needed here in the US. Which meant long months without my soldier. It was a dark time which I struggled to fill with work. Thankfully, with Stark Industries blossoming with new technology learned from Wakanda, Pepper had plenty to keep me busy. And of course, when Bucky was healed and settled back at home, he had lost no time in asking for my hand in marriage.

I lifted an eyebrow at that. “Tinted automatic windows in a straw hut?” I teased, knowing he had spent some time in the fields as his mind slowly healed.

He huffed and gave me an amused look. “Yes. Tinted windows, tricked out with a killer subwoofer and 22 inch rims.” He paused at my loud snort and laughter. “You know, the fancy ones that keep spinning when you stop?” He whirled a metal finger in circles, mimicking the motion.

“Oh my god, you are such a dork,” I snorted, trying to shove his heavy ass out of bed. “Don’t forget, you freaked out the first time you saw one,” I chided as I pushed the covers back and rose out of the warm bed.

Bucky feigned offense as he sat up. “Whaaaat, I thought the damn thing was rolling backwards.”

Remembering how the poor guy actually lifted said car, “protecting” the children walking behind it, I chortled and headed for the bathroom. “And you saved the day by scaring the crap out of those kids.” Barely dodging a strategically thrown pillow, I turned on the shower and got ready for work. “Your assassin skills are a bit lacking!” I knew I was going to pay for that later….

Life in the new Avengers compound took some getting used to. Bucky and I had become accustomed to our life in my small apartment after our outrageously massive wedding, of course funded by Tony, when suddenly he was being called in to save the world at every turn, knighted as a new Avenger by Steve and a begrudging Stark. Tony was gracious enough to give us our own wing full of fancy gadgets and invisible voices coming from the ceiling. Completely massive and unnecessary but he was adamant to have us happy and content. I secretly wondered if he just wanted to appeal to Bucky’s love of sci-fi and new technology. Sometimes I would happen upon them talking of the old days, of Bucky attending the Stark Expos and Tony laughing at his father’s attempts to bring science to a world quite not ready for it. It only reminded me how thankful I am they could work out their anger and heartache. Discovering the news of Bucky’s involvement in Tony’s parent’s death had almost ended the Avengers altogether. 

With trusty Steve next door and Sam across the way, Natasha happily installed in her wing across the grounds, the new Avengers were stronger than ever. Scott was back in San Fran, happy with his life and close to his daughter once again. Peter Parker somehow got his hands on my number and was always calling and texting, eager to prove himself in another fight. Wanda and Vision, bless their hearts, were touring Europe at the moment, sending the most adorable videos and pictures to us. Sam still laughs at Wanda’s “dip into the techno boyfriend” scene but I knew those two were meant to be together. 

Clint and his family, yes he has kids now, were content to move to their own farm a few miles north. Far enough away from the bustle of Avenger work, yet close enough should Clint be needed in any emergency. Natasha and I were happily installed as the “cool aunts” and were content in spoiling those kids rotten every chance we got. Steve, however, was more than happy to leave Clint be. Some days, I wonder if Steve ever longed for what could have been.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Hey, kids,” Tony said distractedly as we entered the vast common room and kitchen, glancing up only for a moment. Various blue screens shimmered in front of him as he studied the data displayed, tapping a screwdriver on the counter as he thought.

“Hey, honey, what’s for breakfast?” I asked as I passed behind him, plopping a kiss on the dark hair of his crown. All I got in return was a smirk and a side glance before FRIDAY called for his attention back to the holograms.

Bucky nodded at Sam, sitting down next to him at the massive table and stole a piece of toast, followed by an amused huff. Grabbing a box of cereal and two bowls from the cabinets, I looked back at Tony, slightly worried.

“Have you eaten yet, Tony?” I asked, opening the fridge for some milk and fruit.

Tony lifted his coffee mug in response, still engrossed.

“I meant solid food, darling,” I pushed, exasperated, rolling my eyes at Natasha who sat opposite. She gave me a small smile in return with a wink, taking a sip of her own coffee.

Tony merely hummed in response and flicked a screen to the right. 

Bucky locked eyes with me before turning back to Sam, who was explaining about their plans for the day. Bucky knew, he understood how my anxiety grew with each passing day. Tony was becoming more and more obsessed with his work with NASA and growing more and more distant. His nightmares seemed to have wrung him dry, left him with dark circles and a prominent furrowed brow, refusing any help with locked doors and silence on those difficult nights. He haunted the compound, rarely seen except in his lab, working on scanning the skies deeper and deeper into space. Steve could only watch and worry in the background, his own cheery smile becoming a thing of the past. I worried for them both, they had grown so close over the years, yet this new fear overwhelmed the bonds, threatening to shatter them.

Natasha stood and left the room, bumping hips with me before she left, leaving her mug in the sink. I couldn’t help but smile at her touch of affection, thankful for her gentle way of saying she gets it. 

“Oh, by the way, Sunshine, T’Challa rang earlier, said he had a concern about something or another,” Sam spoke at Tony, holding out a piece of toast for Bucky. 

Tony seemed to come to life, looking straight at Sam. “He say what it was about?”

Sam shrugged, more concerned on moving the offered toast away from Bucky. “Something about aliens, who knows anymore.” He paused, Bucky’s teeth embedding in the toast. The room grew silent as we all noticed how Tony instantly tensed, eyes piercing. 

“He didn’t seem too concerned,” Sam spoke slowly as Tony rose and basically sprinted from the room, holographs fizzing out on the counter. 

The three of us stared after him in shock, our breakfast temporarily forgotten. My chest ached in worry, my heart sinking deep as my mind forced itself to focus on my phone, which was now ringing with a call from Pepper.

“Man, what the hell was that?” Sam mumbled.

“Must have something to do with NASA,” Bucky answered, voice muffled by the damned toast, returning his gaze to Sam. After a brief glimpse in my direction, the two continued their plans for the day.

I couldn’t help but feel… something was very wrong.

[ 懦夫 Coward ]

About three years ago.

Daniel Zhang wanted for nothing. Born to a life of privilege, he awoke each morning in nothing but the finest pristine white percale 180-thread count Charlotte Thomas bed sheets that cost no less than two grand per sheet. He may as well have slept in gold, but he preferred his gold in the form of a Tag Heuer watch with a nice, sizeable face on it. Each morning, he showered in luxury body wash and dressed in the finest threads Tom Ford had that season. He was the heir of the Zhang legacy, and he would certainly look and act the part as he’d been raised to his entire life.

He didn’t even live in one of the common dorms the other students lived in. Danny had a very comfortable set up in a paid for house near campus where he didn’t have to be bothered or annoyed by the drooling hordes of college students who didn’t take their studies seriously. They were bound to fail or otherwise struggle while he sailed smoothly into perfect grades for a degree that would provide a semblance of credentials for the position in his father’s bank that he was already guaranteed to have. Simply put, Daniel was born with a silver spoon in his mouth that only turned to gold over time.

And yet...

He somehow found himself blissfully tangled in the chaos of the younger man in his arms. Ujin was the little snake in the Garden of Eden that had given him his first taste of the forbidden fruit. It didn’t matter that the dorm room was messy cramped and smelled a little moldy from the sheer age of the building. Those soft, plump lips were sweeter than the juiciest peach, and infinitely more addicting than the high that a bump of cocaine could give.

                   Devour me.

His otherwise sterile life seemed to fill with color and warmth, and he wondered if this fantasy of theirs would ever end. Danny didn’t want it to, but how could he abandon everything he knew, everything he’d been raised to stand for in the name of his own personal pleasure? It was selfish. It was wrong.

Daniel couldn’t help the tendril of guilt that coiled itself around his spine following each time Ujin gifted him with the peak of pulsing pleasure that left him spent. No girlfriend of his had ever played him like a fiddle quite like this, drawing melodic moans of pleasure that manifested in slick ribbons of his essence staining sheets while he himself was filled. No girlfriend of his ever made him see stars that made him feel like he could transcend to another plane of existence, only to fall back down, light as a feather into loving arms. None of them wrapped their hands around his throat and grabbed his hips to fuck him like their lives depended on it. None of them ever made him feel like he was seen the way Ujin did, none of them sated his hunger for real affection.

But Daniel couldn’t admit it.

                                                            I’m a coward, Ujin.

Instead, the curious questions were curved like ninety degree turn on a mountain pass road.

“What are we?”

Wrapped in one another’s arms, it was difficult for Danny to simply get up, get dressed, and leave. The question had come quietly, like a thief in the night. There was curiosity and hope in the velvety voice that asked him in the small hours of morning.

“Fucked if we don’t get rest,” Danny murmured, feigning sleepiness as he closed his eyes and held Ujin a little closer. Sure, there were exams in the morning, but he didn’t have the heart to tell Ujin that they couldn’t be anything more than this. He was already betrothed to wed a nice Chinese girl from an affluent family that would solidify their family relations. Ujin was gay and Danny was... something else. He couldn’t say he was straight exactly, but he was duty bound to marry that woman and produce children to continue the Zhang family lineage. Ujin wouldn’t understand. He would just call it an outdated concept that needed to die a horrible death in a dumpster fire, and that Danny had to live his own life.

But how could he do that and forsake generations of the Zhangs and their traditions? How could he put himself first above the needs of everyone else? Was he truly above others?

I’m doing it now... with him. I could have said no. I didn’t have to come. But here I am. I’m a selfish, contradictory piece of shit, and you deserve better, Uji.

He hated arguing with himself. He hated arguing with Ujin more because Ujin was everything, and yet Daniel couldn’t admit it. It killed him every time he saw the disappointment in Ujin’s eyes, so he tried to avoid it. Danny knew that it hurt Ujin to know that he couldn’t be a part of his world. That he couldn’t meet his parents, or come over for big, celebratory family dinners held in honor of their milestones and achievements.

YOU are everything. But WE? There is no we. We are dalliance that will break your heart.

Daniel knew that he had to leave. He knew that he had to stop seeing Ujin, that they needed to break things off indefinitely. Severing the ties cleanly and quickly would allow Ujin to heal and see with clarity that they weren’t a good match, right? It didn’t matter that his own heart felt like it was shattering to pieces by the mere thought of it, or that a lump formed in his throat every time he opened his lips to begin saying it out loud. Admitting to himself that he had never loved anyone the way he loved Ujin was too much. Admitting that he loved Ujin at all was enough. But he knew it had to end.

Tomorrow. He needs to rest tonight.

Danny turned a little and pressed a gentle kiss on Ujin’s temple. He loved the sweaty scent of the other after a long session of rutting in secrecy. The warmth of their skin resting together, and the way he could feel that fast heartbeat that seemed to match his own was his new home, and he didn’t want to go back to the sterile white sheets in the pristine house that was empty of any and all meaning.

But he had to.

“I need you.”

---

One Through Four

Another night, a different dream; and as if to lull them there, nature sings it’s gentlest song. Rain drums at the window, the wind howls in time, and the familiar sound of steady breathing puts Luna into an easy sleep where she is warm and comfortable, tucked beneath black percale sheets. 

 But then something is taken from beneath her and she is torn unceremoniously from her slumber, pulled upright, far too alert for so safe a room. Instinctively, she reaches for her husband. 

 Once her conscious mind catches up to the distressed noises and frantic movements beside her, she wastes no time in rousing him from his nightmare. Her soft voice calling to him through the haze of sleep: ❝Noctis. You’re dreaming, my love. Open your eyes. Come on, come back to me.❞

 It is not for a good king to dream peacefully, for his heart will always be restless; and nightmares of an old way will doubtlessly be abundant in this new world until there are none left who remember how it used to be. But Luna does not think of Kings or kingdoms, only her beloved, trapped in the throes of his own mind. When he does wake, that heartbroken look in his tired eyes tells her all she need know: it was a bad one.

 ❝Look at me, tell me what you need.❞

 I need you.

 Shifting beneath the covers, Luna pulls him closer, holding on as tight as she dares. With one hand, she delicately tucks back his midnight locks, almost petting him as they wait out this affront to their happy-ever-after together, as they always do. ❝Oh, Noctis. You have me. You’ve always had me - you always will.❞ She leans ever closer, brushing her lips tenderly across his forehead.  ❝I am here with you, darling. Do you wish to talk about it?❞

WCF MCQs 11. You have created a new service based on Windows Communication Foundation and also a client application to test the service. You want add an endpoint in the web.config file of the client application to use the new service. Which values should you include in you service element of the web.config file? A. Address B. Contract C. Binding D. All of these Answer: D 12. A service contract specifies what an endpoint communicates to the outside world. At a more concrete level, it is a statement about a set of specific messages organized into basic message exchange patterns (MEPs), such as request/reply, one-way, and duplex. Which of the following is NOT part of the Service Contract specification: A. The data types of messages B. The specific protocols and serialization formats C. The location of the operations D.

Purchasing cooling sheets is not a one-time affair. One needs to consider various factors before buying them. Following are some of the factors that you need to take into consideration to buy the perfect sheets.

How To Find The Best Cooling Sheets – Cooling Sheets Buying Guide

1. Material

Cooling sheets are made of different types of materials, such as cotton, linen, silk, bamboo, microfiber, and tencel. Let us know more about each material.

Cotton – Cooling sheets made of Egyptian cotton are a popular choice among people. It is the smoothest and finest kind of cotton that is highly breathable and has good absorbing capabilities. This kind of cotton can either help in warming or cooling, depending on the weaving style and thread count.

Linen – Linen is highly durable and cooler than cotton, which makes it a great choice for people living in warmer climates.

Silk – Silk is usually preferred for manufacturing warming sheets because of its tricky absorbent quality. It creates a cooling sensation at the initial touch, but it also absorbs and retains heat.

Bamboo – Consumers who are concerned about the environment usually opt for bamboo cooling sheets. They are hypoallergenic, durable, breathable, and gentle to the touch. This fabric is also much cooler than cotton.

Microfiber – This fabric is not normally preferred by users because it makes the sleeper feel damp and sticky due to night sweats.

Tencel – This fabric is made using rayon and lyocell and is eco-friendly and recyclable. It bears a resemblance to silk. This fabric is good at absorbing moisture and is more breathable.

2. Thread Count

The thread count of a sheet determines whether it is cooling or warming. If the thread count range is between 250-300, it is a cooling sheet. But, one has to note that some sheets that are made of low-quality fibers have a high thread count. Therefore, a high-quality fiber with low thread count can have a very cooling effect.

3. Weave

The way the sheets are weaved/stitched can also have an impact on the fabric’s texture, breathability, moisture absorption, and heat retention capacities.

Percale – Known for its crisp and matte finish, this simple and flat style of weaving cotton fabrics was originally used to stitch aprons and house dresses. The fabrics stitched using this style are lightweight and breathable, making it suitable for weaving cooling sheets.

Sateen – Sateen sheets originate from cotton. They feel heavier than percale, but they work as cooling sheets.

Satin – The sheets weaved using satin not only appear glossy and luxurious, but they also have a very cooling effect.

Jersey – This knit fabric pattern and looser weaving form allow the sheets to perform both the functions of cooling and warming.

4. Color

If you are planning to buy the best cooling sheets, it is better to opt for neutral colors. These colors not only go with a variety of bedding constituents but also are more soothing than bright colors that have an impact on your mood and health.

5. Size

Choose the size of a cooling sheet depending on the bed size and kind of comfort you’re looking for.

6. Natural and Organic Materials

Natural – Natural materials come from the environment and are free of any modifications or additions.

Organic – Organic materials include little or no synthetic, pesticide, or fertilizer content.

Completely natural or pure organic cooling sheets are expensive because more care goes into manufacturing them. One needs to make sure that the products are certified as 100% natural or organic.

Say goodbye to night sweats and get ready to get some restful sleep with these cooling sheets. Which ones do you want to try out? Click on your favorite product, try it out, and let us know about your experience in the comments section below.

The Joy (and Anxiety) of Sleeping on $2,000 Sheets

Last summer, my family spent a week in Italy, in a rented villa surrounded by vineyards. We took in Venetian art, admired classic race cars and, like the Italians, hung our clothes to dry in the summer sun. It wasn’t my first trip to Italy, but it was the grandest. Then we came down off of our prosecco high and went back to our real lives in New Jersey. My most recent Wirecutter assignment—to sleep on three sets of $1,000+ Italian sheets—reminded me of that trip.

As Wirecutter’s resident sheet tester, I’ve tried dozens of reasonably affordable sets for our guides to cotton and flannel sheets. But what if cost is truly no object? Do you actually get that much more for the money? To find out, I called in three of the highest-end sets I could find: Frette’s $1,100 Doppio Ajour, Sferra’s $1,000 Giotto, and Sferra’s $2,000 Giza 45 Sateen.

Sferra and Frette are heritage Italian brands pretty much synonymous with luxury. Sferra was founded in 1891, and its sheets can be found in places like the Thompson Hotel in Chicago. Frette was founded in 1860 and feels more old-world; its sheets are found in Ritz Carlton hotels and at the St. Regis, and its linens have been used by presidents, popes, and royalty. Still, I was skeptical that any sheet was worth such a scary sum.

How they felt to sleep in

To put them to the test, I compared each high-end set with the upgrade cotton sheets we already recommend, the $200 Cuddledown 400 Thread Count Sateen. I tested all of the luxury sets in sateen—it’s softer and more luxurious than percale so it seemed appropriate for this price bracket. All of the sheets I tried were beautifully made, with lovely details. But though the $1,000 Frette Doppio Ajour and Sferra Giotto sets cost about five times as much as our upgrade sheet pick, they don’t feel five times better. The $2,000 Giza 45, however, is absolutely 10 times better.

The Giza 45 sheets were splendid; clearly softer, thinner, and more supple than the others.They felt like silk. I couldn’t stop touching them, running my bare feet over them, and wiggling around on them. Sleep is already one of my favorite activities, and miraculously, a big part of my job, and these sheets made it even more joyous.

Comparing the more affordable cotton sets Wirecutter recommends with any of the three high-end sets I tried is like asking if you should buy a Honda or a Ferrari. Do you need a well-made, reliable car that’s comfortable, low maintenance, and long-lasting? Or do you want to invest in something impeccably engineered, a thrill to experience, but fussy and impractical? Owning luxury goods comes with pressure to maintain them. Family snuggles in bed were now interrupted by thoughts like, “How dirty is the dog?” and “Has my 6-year-old washed her hands recently?” It turns out that my anxiety can’t stay at vacation levels forever.

Why are they so expensive?

Part of what made the Sferra Giza 45 rise above the other two luxe sets I tried is the quality of the cotton. Giza 45 is possibly the finest cotton fabric currently being produced. It’s the highest-grade variety of Egyptian extra-long-staple cotton, known for its exceptional strength and softness. It’s rare and expensive, and is traditionally reserved for the finest men’s shirting; Sferra is the first company to use it for bed linens.

What makes Giza 45 so rare is the fineness of the material, in a literal sense. A strand of silk—the finest of all natural fibers used in textiles—is 1 denier (a measure of a fiber’s thickness and weight), and sheer tights can be as low as 5 denier. The Giza 45 set’s denier is about 1.05 (we calculated this based on the micronaire measurement that Sferra provided). The resulting sheets are almost impossibly thin and wispy, something I would normally flag as a sign they’ll wear out quickly, but I don’t have that concern here because of their superlative material quality and craftsmanship.

The luxury sheets’ fabric was cut precisely and then stitched perfectly. Not just perfect to the naked eye, perfect to the millimeter.

Most sheets have finishes to make them feel smoother out of the packaging, which is why we recommend washing your sheets before you judge their natural feel. For example, the Cuddledown sheets are mercerized, meaning they’re treated with sodium hydroxide to soften them, prevent wrinkles, and limit shrinkage. Frette and Sferra told us that they don’t use any chemical finishes in the final stages of production; the cotton is so fine and densely woven that it doesn’t need to rely on artificial finishes. Instead Frette (and, I suspect, Sferra, although I couldn’t confirm) calender the sheets—a process of feeding them through hot rollers to get them thin, flat, and very, very shiny. It’s like ironing turned up to 11. (Although, like ironing, the super-flat finish doesn’t last through a wash). All three sets were silky-soft, and my hands glided smoothly over the fabric.

The luxury sheets (Giza 45 on the left) all had flat, mitered corners, lacy stitching, and the width of the seams was exact. The Cuddledown 400 (right) was well-constructed, but less refined. Photo: Kyle Fitzgerald

All of the luxury sheets had crisp, mitered corners, precise tiny stitches, and open, lacy detailing that would easily show any mistakes. But with these sheets, there were none. The width of the seams on the Sferra Giza 45 and Frette flat sheets were exactly the same all the way around. (I checked.) Cuddledown’s seams were wider, puckered, and, though the stitches looked fine, when measured, they weren’t an even width. That means that the luxury sheets’ fabric was cut precisely and then stitched perfectly. Not just perfect to the naked eye, perfect to the millimeter. I’ve been sewing for more than a decade, and I can’t do that.

Every detail on the Frette sheets was impeccable—they’re tailored by career artisans to exacting specifications. You can’t hide mistakes with this type of open stitching, but there weren’t any. Photo: Kyle Fitzgerald

This level of construction takes a lot of sewing skill and great quality control. These sheets are not made, they’re tailored. Sferra told us that it has two women whose only job is to hand-cut fabric, and that their team of sewers each specialize in a particular detail—the mitered corners, the hemstitch—so each is the absolute best at their particular task. Frette told us that it has exacting specifications for the formulations of each sheet, called a “recipe.” Many of the company’s artisans have made careers sewing linens and, for several, it’s a family skill passed down for generations.

The inconvenience of $2,000 sheets

The quality and price of the sheets made them very intimidating. I didn’t work up the courage to wash them for a few days. Like someone driving a Ferrari for the first time, I was instantly worried I would ruin them. I made my husband wash his hands before touching them. I moved all pens, toys, children, and pets far out of reach.

The Sferra Giotto (seen here) and Frette Doppio Ajour sets felt very similar—they were both a crisper sateen that was very comfortable and cool, but wasn’t as soft as our upgrade pick, the Cuddledown 400. Photo: Kyle Fitzgerald

When I finally washed them, it highlighted some impracticalities. With the calendering washed away, the sheets looked less pristine and more accessible—they wrinkle just like any other cotton sheets. The Sferra Giotto and Frette Doppio Ajour both wrinkled more than the Cuddledown, possibly because they don’t use anti-wrinkle finishes. The Giza 45 set looked and felt the best out of the dryer.

It’s charming that these sheets feel designed for an Italian villa with a house staff ready to wash and hang them to dry in the sprawling garden. It was less charming to air-dry them over a shower rod in my bathroom.

Both sets of the Sferra sheets can be tumbled dry on low, and therefore washed by everyday mortals, but Frette’s terse care instructions, translated from Italian, are a list of things you shouldn’t do: Don’t bleach, don’t tumble dry, don’t dry clean, and don’t iron on the hottest cotton setting.

It’s charming that these sheets feel designed for an Italian villa with a house staff ready to wash and hang them to dry in the sprawling garden. Frette even offers a white-glove service, which according to its website includes “on-site ironing, bed dressing, and estate staff training.” The whole endeavor felt less charming when I actually had to air-dry them, draped over a shower rod and towel bars in my bathroom. It took a day and a half. We recently sold our house in New Jersey and are temporarily renting an apartment in Washington. I fantasized about having a yard again, and drying these sheets on a clothesline, gently blowing in the breeze. But what would I do during Seattle’s nine-month rainy season? My day-to-day life has a devastating lack of sun-drenched villas.
