fitted sheet
Elasticized bed cover
A fitted sheet is a bed sheet with elasticized corners that stretch over a mattress to hold it in place.
Unlike flat sheets, which lie loose, fitted sheets grip the mattress edges and stay put during sleep.
They're notoriously difficult to fold neatly: I just roll up the fitted sheets and stuff them in the closet.
