One sheet or two?
If a continuous 140 or 160 mattress lies in the double bed, a fitted sheet of this size is correct. If two single mattresses lie next to each other, you need two sheets in 90–100x200 cm, otherwise the sheet wanders into the gap. Why this is and what applies to Liebesbrücke and toppers is explained by the guide Two mattresses in the double bed: one fitted sheet or two?.
Winter or summer?
For cold nights, take biberna or Melange flannel: The brushed surface stores heat and matches the biberna bedding. For heavy sweaters, Terry-Stretch is the first choice, Jersey and Fine jersey are pleasant all year round. You can find the comparison in the guide Terry, Jersey or Biberna.
Care
All fitted sheets are washable at 60 °C and suitable for the dryer, Jersey and Fine jersey are non-iron. Wash Biberna and Melange without fabric softener so that the surface remains fluffy.
