4. Folding your Socks

It looks tricky, but it’s actually pretty basic. First, you lay the socks on top of each other perpendicularly, forming a cross shape. Then, you flip the bottom sock over the top, tucking in the toe.

6. Folding Jeans Four Times

It might feel like overkill, but this super condensed way of folding jeans allows you to store ’em horizontally and pack more pants into each drawer.

7. Folding the Hoodie

Step 1: Smooth Sailing

Lay the hoodie on a clean, flat surface. Zip it up if there’s a zipper and turn it face down. Use your hands to straighten and flatten out the wrinkles from the sleeves to the body.

Step 2: Folding Under Pressure

Take the right sleeve and fold it straight across the back. Repeat with the left sleeve. If the sleeves run over the sweatshirt, simply fold the cuff back a little. Look for the shoulder line and fold the sweatshirt in on one side so that the edge hits the middle of the back of the sweatshirt. Repeat on the other side. Fold the sweatshirt upward in half so that it’s flat and square.

Step 3: Look Under the Hood

The dangling hood is used to contain the sweatshirt so that it doesn’t come undone. Keep the sweatshirt laying facedown. Take the hood and turn it inside out over the back of the sweatshirt and envelop the hoodie’s body. If the hoodie has drawstrings, pull them so that the sweatshirt is tightly enclosed inside the hood. Voila — you have a sweet hoodie square to tuck into your drawer.
