Linen sheets or cotton sheets?

Hi everyone,

I’m buying a bigger bed, and I’ve noticed that linen sheets are seeming to be quite popular online.

I’m trying to decide between linen sheets or cotton sheets (1000 t/c). What do you all prefer?

Is the linen worth the extra spend? Are they scratchy? Do they wash well? Or is it all just a marketing ploy?

Thank you so much for your thoughts and opinions!
