Where it goes
Satin stitch is a choice on every percale pillowcase, duvet cover set and flat sheet, Plain and Oxford.
Double row
A double row of satin stitch frames the edge with two parallel lines. It reads as more tailored and more luxurious, and suits suites, boutique rooms and a statement bed at home.

Satin stitch is made to order, so it cannot be cancelled, returned or refunded once production has started, unless there is a verified fault or a Linen and Co error.
Satin stitch is a band of dense, parallel stitches sewn along the edge of the linen. The thread lies flat and close, so it has a soft sheen that catches the light. On white percale it is the detail that makes a bed look finished.
Most hotels and guesthouses choose a thread that sits close to the linen: white on white for a quiet, tone-on-tone line, or grey and stone for a soft contrast that still looks calm. A darker thread such as charcoal, navy or burgundy draws a strong line around the bed and can pick up a colour in your room or your logo. If you are matching a brand colour, send us the colour reference and we will suggest the closest thread from our card before we quote.
Satin stitch is washed with the linen it is sewn on, so follow the care label of the fabric: polycotton percale washes at up to 60°C and cotton percale at 30°C to 40°C. Wash white linen with whites, avoid harsh bleach on coloured thread, and take the linen out of the dryer promptly so the stitching lies flat. Our care guides repeat the instructions for each fabric.
Satin stitch is made to order for you, so it cannot be cancelled, returned or refunded once production has started, unless there is a verified fault or a Linen and Co error. Please read our returns and refunds policy before you order.
