How To Fold a Sweatshirt Like a Pro (Without Losing Your Sanity)

Folding a sweatshirt might seem like rocket science when you’re staring at that comfy pile of fabric, but don’t worry! We’ve cracked the code for you, and it’s easier than tying your shoes (unless your shoes have a mind of their own). Here’s how to turn your sweatshirt into a tidy, space-saving masterpiece.

Step 1: Lay It Flat

Start by finding a flat surface. Your bed, the floor, or even the dining table will do. Spread your sweatshirt out like you’re preparing it for a spa day—arms stretched, wrinkles smoothed.

Step 2: Fold the Sleeves

Take each sleeve and fold them diagonally across the chest like a cozy sweatshirt hug. Think of it like tucking a toddler in for bedtime—gentle but firm.

Step 3: Fold in the Sides

Fold the sides of the body inward so it forms a neat rectangle. Bonus points if it starts looking like a burrito you’d want to eat.

Step 4: Fold in Half or Thirds

Depending on how much drawer space you’ve got (or how lazy you’re feeling), fold the sweatshirt in half or thirds. Voilà! You’ve got yourself a tidy sweatshirt that’s ready for the runway—uh, dresser.

Why It’s Worth the Effort

A neatly folded sweatshirt is not only easier to store, but it also means you won’t accidentally grab a wrinkled mess when you’re late for brunch. And hey, isn’t it nice to feel like you’ve got life figured out? At least for now.

By the way, if you’re looking for new sweatshirts to perfect your folding skills, you know where to find them. 😉
