bottom sheets

Fitted bed linens

Bottom sheets are the sheets that go directly on a mattress, beneath the sleeper.

They may be flat or fitted—fitted bottom sheets have elasticized corners that grip the mattress.

I need to wash the bottom sheets.

Distinguished from top sheets, which cover the sleeper.
