Proper Preparation is Key
Before you even attempt to fold your pullover, make sure it’s been properly cleaned and dried. A pullover that’s still wet or damp can easily become misshapen during the folding process. Remove any debris, such as lint or pet hair, from the garment before starting.
Lay the Pullover Flat
Spread your pullover on a flat surface, such as a table or bed, with the sleeves and body fully extended. Smooth out any wrinkles or creases that you notice.
Fold in the Sleeves
Starting with one sleeve, fold it across the back of the pullover so that it forms a straight line. Repeat this step with the other sleeve so that they overlap in the center of the back.
Fold the Pullover in Half
Take the bottom of the pullover and fold it up towards the neckline, creating a straight line across the bottom of the pullover. Fold the top of the pullover down towards the bottom, so that the neckline and folded hem line up.
Final Touches
Smooth out any remaining wrinkles or creases in the pullover, making sure all the edges are aligned. When finished, the pullover should be a neat, compact rectangle that can easily be stored in a drawer, suitcase, or on a shelf.
Now that you know how to fold a pullover, you can keep your wardrobe organized and tidy. For more clothing care tips, check out resources such as The Spruce and Real Homes.
