Can you help identify this sheet material? It's literally one of grandma's old sheets, it seems to have a thread count of about 150, but the most important thing is the weight, it's 240gsm, twice as heavy as anything I can find online.5spd4wd t1_j6nw7zk wrote

Just an FYI; true vintage muslin sheets have a thread count of 130-145 threads per square inch. That is why people the people who love them look for them - they're so breathable. The loose thread count and the lack of any synthetic fiber like polyester don't trap sweat and body odors.
Don't be fooled by new "muslin" sheets. If they say something like "wrinkle free" that means they're not 100% cotton muslin, but a blend with a synthetic fiber.
