Bed sheets

I know this is a very boring topic but I need help with bed sheets.

Can anybody recommend fitted bed sheets that feel cool to the touch? The fitted sheets that I always bought have been discontinued and I've bought some different ones and I'm so warm on them!

Also, I have pets and these ones seem to attract hair like a magnet which never happened with my other sheets! So any recommendations for cool, deep sheets that don't attract pet hair?

I've just bought some Fogarty Soft Touch fitted sheets from Dunelm, they're so lovely. Come in 3 size depths.

Tencel is supposed to be cool to sleep on, though it’s quite difficult to find 100% tencel ones here. Most (eg M&S, soak and sleep, next) blend it with up to 30% cotton. Tencel is a good environmental choice (made from eucalyptus) and I believe lyocell is a brand name, but it’s not as durable as cotton -which is why it tends to be sold in blends.
I bought some soak & sleep ones and while they are lovely, I can’t say they are noticeably cooler than my cotton ones, interested to hear other experiences,

Meant to say blend it with up to 70% cotton, not 30! Have seen pure tencel sheets in the USA tho

I've got M&S "comfortably cool" bedding. The fitted sheet is ok but the duvet cover feels weirdly clammy and makes me feel hotter Confused
Now I combine the fitted sheet with linen duvet covers and pillowcases which is much better.

Can really recommend a 1 tog duvet as well. I got mine from M&S.

Thanks for these suggestions, I'll start having a look.
