How to fold a sweater for beginners

C'mon into this Fall in Love With Folding post!

You'll learn how to fold sweaters so you can stand them side-by-side all slick & perfect just like the YouTube vids.

We're going to fold both non-bulky and bulky sweaters.

Let's get folding...

How to fold non-bulky sweaters so they stand up side-by-side nicely

1. Lay the sweater on a flat surface.

2. Fold arms over each other.

3. Fold bottom of the sweater up so the seam is just below the arms.

4. Fold the bottom of that over the arms.

5. Look on one side. There's a pocket.

6. Fold one end over so that the top is twice as long as the bottom.

7. Fold the longer side into the pocket display in step 5.

8. Now the sweaters stand up.

Place a few side by side in a drawer or container.

By the way, the container is from Winners.

How to fold bulky sweaters

Bulky sweaters have less steps but take more hold-in-place smarts.

1. Lay your bulky sweater on f lat surface.

2. Fold arms across sweater.

Up to now same as thinner sweaters.

3. Fold sides of sweater to half-way mark.

4. Fold top of sweater over less than 1/2 way.

A pocket has been created under the neck.

5. fold the bottom of the sweater into the pocket (under the neck.)

That's it!

You now have a folded bulky sweater.

It's a robust fold, you can add this sweater to other stand-up sweaters or just put it in a drawer.

Or you could leave it on your dresser and admire the heck out of it.
