For a sateen weave, on the other hand, the yarn has a three-over, one-under or four-over, one-under structure, resulting in a long float. Since there are fewer crossing points, the fabric is smoother, Gopinath elaborates. Sateen tends to feel more "flexible and bendable." The sateen weave structure and long floats allow the bedding to pack more thread. That's why high-quality bedding usually has a 400 to 800 thread count that further enhances the durability of this bedding.
