Folding

[susandennis]

A long time ago I learned how to fold fitted sheets. I'm actually a good folder in general. My dad traveled a lot and watching him pack was what we did for fun. He was a great folder himself.

This morning, on some blog or other, there was a link to this flash movie that shows how to fold a t-shirt. I have no clue what made me even click on it but now I can't stop watching it. I can't wait to get home, get a t-shirt and try it myself. Warning, the movie has sound that starts up right when you click PLAY.

How to fold a shirt.

How do you fold fitted sheets?? Whenever I have to fold them, I'm sooooooo tempted to just wad them in a ball and throw them in the closet that way. :)

Aha! Now I know why I have so much trouble folding fitted sheets -- I don't have a cat to help me!

Wanna borrow one?

No thanks, I think I can get the requisite help locally.

That is so helpful! I can't fold em worth crap, but now I want to try. And I have a cat to help!

You know, TiVo needs to get granular. I'm not interested in Letterman but I would have liked to have seen this...

I've never worked in retail but I've watched store people fold shirts and they don't do it like this.

I did wonder if I was not the last person in the world to find out about this.

second to last--i hadn't seen it done until i saw the letterman thing. i am, personally, not too interested in folding stuff--i'm one of those lazy sorts who does the laundry and fetches bits and pieces out of the dryer as needed ...

Dean practiced and now knows how to do it. Which is of no use since we outsource our laundry.

You can tell Dean that the minute I got home I pulled out a shirt to try it... I'm ready for the Fold Off... is he???

We used to own a T shirt shop, and I never knew about this.
