Would refer you to a line of linen bedding called Matteo, made in Los Angeles. Their website is matteohome.com.

I would kill someone for inexpensive (as in, under $40) linen sheets.

Why linen?

Woudn't linen kind of wrinkle really easily and drive you nuts? I have thee custom linen pillows and don't you dare touch them - as they wrinkle even when you look at them. I'm curious to know, like Quercus above, why linen is popular for sheets?

Ignore my post above, I figured out why you recommended them by reading the links to the older posts.

Hey, I just stumbled across Luxury Linen Shams on VivaTerra.com for 50% off! 3 versions: striped linen (standard), striped linen (euro) and hemstitch in flax (king). $24 to $34. Unfortunately, the sheets are not on sale. Humph.

You'll find a really great selection of the Libeco Belgian linen at Didriks. Check out the Vernazza if you want strong color!

I sleep on Libeco flannel sheets most of the year, but I love linen. I line dry it and don't find it too wrinkly.

OK. Just one more point about wrinkles. Yes, I'm not all that picky about the wrinkling of my sheets. It's kind of a relaxed lifestyle thing. But I do carefully line-dry. The dryer is a no-no. All that heat makes them wrinkle like crazy. Talking in person with folks at Libeco, I notice they all wear linen wraps or shawls that are a quite wrinkly, but look great.

Has anyone tried sheets by Linoto?:

I want to, but there are almost no reviews of them online.

y'know, etsy seller linenme has handmade bed linens. i'm thinking of getting a pair of pillowcases to try...

also curious about linoto. and really wanting some matteo, but completely can't afford it!!

After reading these comments, I ordered some sheets from Linoto a couple of weeks ago for my wife. We received absolutely amazing striped ones - neither of us can believe how amazing they are. They are packaged beautifully and are incredibly soft and cool. Just great.

Hi, I'm Jason, the founder for www.linoto.com. Gary, thanks for the kind words! It's great to find others who are passionate about linen sheets. As a fashion designer, I want to make things that feel special and truly worth the money. I started Linoto almost 2 years ago, when I was looking for (and unable to find) affordable linen sheets in modern styles. Our website has several customer reviews, if you're interested. Linoto has a 30-day money-back guarantee and offers free shipping on all orders in the USA. In the past 2 years, with hundreds of orders, only 1 set of pillowcases has ever been returned. Many of our customers have returned to buy additional sheet sets, towels, napkins, and curtains. We are friendly, accomodating and work hard to ensure every customer is satisfied with their purchase.

okay y'all, i posted above - got some linoto sheets for my birthday - and i love them! i'm living here in texas in the 100-degree weather, and they're just so light and cool to the touch! we sleep three in the bed and the linen sheets are a godsend!

besides that, the santorini stripe looks just delectable in our bedroom. i urge y'all to check linoto.com out if you're considering linen sheet, definitely.

Very good. Thanks all for replying to my earlier question.

I think I'll get some, but now the question is whether to get the normal set in oatmeal or the natural Belgian eco set.

I work for Brahms Mount in Hallowell Maine. I'm heartbroken we're not mentioned! We're currently the only 100% Linen manufacturers in North America weaving outstanding blankets and throws.

However, being a Linen fanatic myself, I'm glad you're giving this fiber the recognition it deserves!

www.roughlinen.com has natural washed linen bedding with a homespun texture, much more rustic and 'artisanal' than any of the others mentioned, but fabulously comfortable~

Hi, great to read all comments on linen bedlinen. At www.thelinenworks.co.uk we recently launched our beautiful range of prewashed bedlinen which is proving extremely popular with our customers. They are loving the relaxed look and the way the linen feels so soft the minute it goes on the bed. Colours are also making a come back - currently our dove grey and rose pink are selling just as well as our white.

My sister in law has an amazing line of Belgian linens from Pom Pom at Home here in Los Angeles....beautiful & soft

I love the look and feel of linen, but if $200-$400 is affordable for a bed sheet set, then count me out.

I am with @twleidy on this one... I LOVE my Linen sheets but I never understood why they were so expensive! Makes it hard to justify getting a second set as these wear out...

Sferra Classico Linen Sheets:

These sheets are stunning in their simplicity and overall beauty, and the quality of the Italian linen is simply wonderful. Having heard of, but never seen linen sheets, I had ordered Irish linen pillowcases to see how well I liked them, and to my surprise I found the Irish linen to be a heavier linen and best suited for the winter months. A few weeks later I was in a linen store and happened to come across these Sferra Classico linen sheets and was impressed by their beauty. They are cooler to sleep on in the hot months than cotton, and I iron the pillowcases and about a foot of the top sheet. Simply beautiful. These sheets are made from the finest Italian linen but you need seriously deep pockets to buy them.

Cuddledown Italian Linen Sheets:

Good quality at good price when they go on sale. About $165 for a King Flat.

Garnet Hill's Eileen Fisher's Linen Sheets:

I just purchased her pillowcases in rosewater and am returning them. The linen is from China and about a grade B with premium pricing of $165 for a King flat.

Linoto Linen Sheets:

I've ordered samples swatch's which haven't arrived yet, but I have read good reviews about them and you can also buy them on amazon and get points if you're signed up for them.

Belgium Linen:

I'm looking forward to seeing the quality of the Belgium linen but so far have not run across any.

Buyer Advice:
If you see linen sheets without a country of origin the linen is probably from China (Garnet Hill) or from India, both (usually) inferior grades of linen.

To follow up on my review above, I received linen samples from Rough Linen and loved the "Smooth Linen" line at affordable prices. They arrived wrapped in tissue paper with a ribbon and a sample of a linen wash. I ordered 2 standard/queen pillowcases to see the quality before ordering their flat sheets. The linen was very good quality for the same exact price as the poor quality linen pillowcases from Eileen Fisher/Garnet Hill (linen from China)!

Rough Linen sheets are also over-sized so you can tuck the bottom sheet in easily. Nice quality for a reasonable price.

I have bought a set recently from this producer:
http://www.etsy.com/shop/MoodsStore
They are not as popular as the above mentioned, but offer a high quality European linen for reasonable price - 259 USD for a Queen duvet cover and 2 pillow cases. They are great.

I bought 100% linen bed sheets from Sofia's Linen , They are absolutely fabulous awesome european quality and the prices are almost too good to be true . I will recomend to anyone who is looking for pure linen bedding. Their website is : www.sofiaslinen.com
