Step 1
Select a clean, large, flat surface on which to fold the sweater. Ironing boards are no good; they're too narrow. Good choices are freshly made beds and clean, empty dining room tables.
-
Step 2
Lay the sweater face down and right-side out. Adjust the waist opening of the sweater, if necessary, to make sure that the front and back line up perfectly.
-
Step 3
Fold over each arm, one at a time, so that the cuffs rest in the lower middle of the back of the sweater. The two cuffs should meet in the middle, one overlapping the other, and the sleeves should make a V-shape across the back of the sweater.
-
Step 4
Grab the shoulders of the sweater, one with each hand, and carefully fold the top half neatly over the bottom half. It should be folded right down the middle so that the collar is even with the waist opening.
-
Step 5
Store the sweater in this fashion, ideally in a dresser drawer or sealed plastic container.
