Hello friends! I am here to solve the mystery of how to fold a fitted sheet! 😉 I know people really do struggle with this though, and a lot of people don't even bother, so here's the easy peasy:
Find two corners along one side (as long as they're not diagonal to each other, any two will do). Stick your hands inside them so that they are inside out, with the seam showing.
Fold one over the other, so one hand hasn't moved but the other corner is on top with the correct side out. Repeat this for the other two corners.
Fold the sides inward like this, so all the scrunchy elastic parts are facing inside.
Now you can begin to fold like a flat sheet, in half and then half again. The edges are straight since you folded the elastic toward the middle.
Distract your cat helper with a toy.
And now you have a neatly folded sheet! Magic! 😄
Let me know if you've always struggled with fitted sheets if this helps!
