How-To: Sweater Folding

The weather is starting to get chilly enough to actually bust out the cardigan or sweater from the hibernating plastic bins under my bed. And, to keep Husband’s woolly merinos and my cashmere sweaters in nice shape, I put to use the folding skills I obligingly mastered during my six long years in retail.

{Yes, retail is this rewarding.}

1. Lay sweater face down, fold each arm straight across.
2. Fold one side to the middle.
3. Fold over the other side, so that the sleeve edges meet in the center
4. Fold up once or twice, depending on the thickness of the sweater.
