To want my kids to be cosy in their IKEA beds?

My kids both have IKEA beds so European size singles 200 cm long instead if 190. Finding bedsheets to fit has always been a pita, and with the colder weather in the way (and trying to reduce heating costs etc) I'm trying to find this fleecy/sheepskin style undersheets in that size and am really struggling.

Anyone out there who has a good suggestion to somewhere that sells this size?

Have you thought about sleeping bags, you can get different togs and just put duvet over the bag

IKEA are great but they do annoy me with their random sizing at times. I bought an IKEA mattress for an IKEA single bed which doesn't quite fit properly. Bloody annoying.

They're not random. Ikea in the UK sell both UK and European sizes, so you might have bought the wrong one.

I put cheap fleece blankets on our beds mattresses, just over their sheet. It is really toasty.

My kids have ikea beds and I use normal fitted sheets on ours. Think they were from Asda.

Dunelm for brushed cotton, deep ones. I bought some for us all last week and they are so cosy!!!

Don't about the fleece but H&M and Primark single sheets are this size.
