Turn the entire shirt over. You should have a neatly folded shirt as you typicallysee at a professional laundry or clothing store.
1 Lay out the shirt. Lay the shirt out horizontally in front of you, face-up. The neckof the shirt should be to your left.
2 Pinch the shoulder. On the far side of the shirt, grasp the shirt with your left handat the top of the shoulder, halfway between the sleeve and the neck.
3 Pinch the midsection. On that same side, grasp the shirt with your right handhalfway down the shirt (think of this as the point where the bottom fold would be on
a store-bough shirt). Your right hand should be parallel with your left hand.
Make sure that you have pinched through both layers of fabric.
4 Fold the shirt over. Still pinching the shirt with both hands, cross your left handover your right hand so that the shoulder of the shirt goes down to the hem. Pinch
the hem and the shoulder together with your left hand.
Your arms should now be crossed.
5 Uncross your arms. Lift the shirt up as you uncross your arms, keeping yourgrasp on the shirt with both arms. Pull the shirt taut with both hands and shake out
and creases.
6 Fold the remainder of the shirt. Holding the shirt up, lay it so that the frontportion of the unfolded sleeve is touching the ground, up to the equivalent position
where it is folded on the other side.

Lay the shirt down. Lower the rest of the shirt so that the fold is complete and thefront of the shirt is facing up.

1 Use the permanent press cycle. This dryer cycle will allow your clothes to coolwhile they are still moving, preventing wrinkles from forming. Clothes are most
likely to wrinkle while they are warm, so cooling them when they can't form wrinkles isbest.
2 Always starch your shirts before folding. If you really want to keep your shirtsfrom wrinkling after you fold them, starch and iron your shirts before folding.
3Ad
Don't pack shirts too tightly. When you put away folded shirts, don't pack themin too tightly. This is more likely to wrinkle them.

You may use a flat rectangular cardboard template (or somethingsimilar, such as a magazine) that is sized to fit between the left andright body folds. This keeps your shirts uniformly folded. Place thetemplate on your shirt after it is face down. Finish folding. You can slidethe cardboard out after the final step.Folding incorrectly can lead to wrinkles and creases in the wrongplaces! Be careful!Properly folded shirts travel better and need less touch-up pressing.
