Sustainable linen

Bamboo sheets.  Mmmm.

Just slept in new ones I bought this week.  $140 on special.

Better to the touch than cotton, and, I’m told, warmer in winter and cooler in summer.

And, of course, the bamboo uses far less water than cotton to grow, so it’s a material that, in the growing at least, causes less damage than does cotton growing.

They cause no allergies, apparently.

May the bamboo sheets be upon your bed,

Michael
