I believe the answer is:

sheet

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'bed linen' is the definition.
(I know that sheet is a type of bed linen)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sheet that I've seen before include "Piece of paper; nautical rope" , "Piece of paper or bedlinen" , "Item of bedlinen" , "One of pair tucked in" , "Mattress cover" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
