Description
The Harriet Gingham fitted sheet is pure cotton with a small, even gingham check running across the whole face of the sheet. On the cloth itself the check reads as a soft chocolate brown against a pale blue-white ground, a tonal pairing rather than a hard contrast. It comes in four sizes, from single through to super king, so you can match the sheet to the bed you already own. As a fitted sheet it has elasticated corners that pull the fabric taut over the mattress and hold it in place through the night.
This is a sheet for the everyday bed rather than a special-occasion one. The muted check sits happily in a relaxed, pared-back bedroom, and it gives you two honest ways to dress the bed: keep to coordinating browns and neutrals for a quiet, tonal look, or mix and match it against bolder bedding if you want more going on. Because the check is small and regular it reads as texture from across the room and as a proper gingham up close, which makes it easy to live with day to day.
The cotton here is garment washed, which is why the fabric already has a lived-in softness and a slightly relaxed hand straight out of the packet. Cotton is breathable and takes a wash well, so this is a sheet you can launder often without ceremony. The supplier tells us it dries quickly and needs no ironing, so you can put it straight back on the bed for a neat finish with no pressing. If you like the check, look for the wider Harriet Gingham range in the same tonal palette to build a coordinated bed.

Frequently Asked
What is the Harriet Gingham fitted sheet made from?
It is made from 100% cotton, which is breathable and washes well, so it is comfortable to sleep on and easy to keep fresh through regular laundering.
Does this sheet really not need ironing?
The supplier states there is no need to iron it. Put it back on the bed straight after drying and the fabric settles to a neat, relaxed finish on its own.
What does garment washed mean for how it feels?
Garment washing softens the cotton before it reaches you, so the sheet has a lived-in feel and a slightly relaxed hand rather than a crisp, stiff finish out of the packet.
Which sizes can I choose from?
The sheet is available in single, double, king and super king, so you can match it to your mattress. Choose the size that names your bed.
How do I keep the colours looking their best?
As a printed cotton, washing it inside out with similar colours and drying it promptly helps keep the tonal check looking clean and even over time.
