Title: The nobility of thread. The thinner, more cohesive and longer a thread is (i.e. composed of homogeneous and regular fibres), the more valuable it will be. The parameter used to indicate the value of the yarn is called 'count', a figure derived from the ratio between the length and weight of the yarn (m/kg).
A fabric made from long-fibre cotton guarantees greater resistance to wear and washing and a much softer touch. In fact, while a fabric made from short-fibre cotton will have a thin layer of pilling that escapes the surface of the weave and which, with friction and washing, will produce unsightly pilling, a fabric made from long-fibre cotton yarn will not be subject to pilling and will remain beautiful and soft over the years.

Textile weave: this is the process by which the fabric is created, i.e. the design and proportion of the warp and weft threads; depending on their arrangement and the quantity of threads used, one will have a plain weave, such as cotton satin, or a dull weave, such as cotton percalle.
The quantity of threads in a fabric is indicated by the term 'Thread Count', which calculates the number of threads per square centimetre: the higher the TC, the higher the quality of the fabric and weave. Textile weaves with a TC of 200 or more are considered fine fabrics.

Percalle: is a cotton fabric which is obtained by weaving a plain weave, worked with fine yarns with a tight weave structure. Smooth and of medium weight, the quality of cotton percalle is measured by the quantity of threads present per square centimetre: the greater the quantity of fine thread present, the softer and lighter the fabric.
