Hi, my name is Carla Leenders, I'm a personal stylist at The Glass Slipper and I'm going to show you how to style your wardrobe. And now I'm going to show you how to fold a sweater. Take your crumpled sweater and give it a good shake, just to get any creases out of it.

Then, you want to lay it flat down on a surface like a table or a chair or even your floor or bed. A really handy tip here is to take a magazine or a piece of cardboard and place it flat in the center of your garment. Fold the sides over the side of the magazine, like so, then take the arms and fold them over the sides of the sweater.

You then want to carefully pull the magazine out of the sweater, put it to one side. Then take the hem of the jumper, fold it over, pick up the shoulders, fold them back, and you have a perfectly folded sweater. I'm going to show you that again.

So, take your jumper, give it a shake out, to get out any creases. Lay it flat on a flat surface like a table or a bed. Take your magazine template, pop it into the middle of your sweater, fold the sides over.

Then, take the arms and fold those on top of the sides. Carefully remove the magazine or the template from your sweater, pop it to one side. Pick up the hem of your sweater, fold that over, then pick up the shoulders, fold back, and you've got a perfectly folded sweater.

However, if you don't have time to fold your sweater like that, a quicker way to do it is fold in half, make sure the shoulders are both aligned. Run your finger down the arms to make sure that the arms are aligned. Put them across the body, fold in half, and that's a quick way to fold your sweater. .
