Neat and useful method of folding shirts

Watch this <a href="http://web.mit.edu/wuster/www/media/fold.wmv">Video</a>. I watched it but can't keep up. I guess I have to practice.

I saw that video a while ago and I must say that it really does save time. You don't have to make sure the shirt is "smooth" or anything. You just pick it up at the right points and you're done!

Looks pretty useful especially if you're storing on shelves (like in store). My button downs go on hangers.

I still have no idea of how to fold my damn clothes. I either hang them, or if I go on trips, I roll them up and stuff them into the suitcase.

My laundry folding method:

Step one, sort into organized piles.

Step two, run said piles through washing machine and dryer.

Step three, leave on couch long enough wife folds them for me.

I'm no good at this folding thing, but my daughter (she's 11) picked it up in two tries and now she just rips. Very impressive.

I came across this video about 2 months ago. It took me about 4 tries to get it right. Make sure you are positioned exactly like the lady doing the demo. Now you don't need to spend 19.95 for that pastic clothes folding thing on TV infomercial.

I just want to know who was so bored and needed something to do that they made an instructional video about folding laundry. By the way, anyone care to translate it?

I absoutely love this video. However, I decided to deconstruct what was really happening with the first fold. The same thing can be achieved by laying you t-shirt out flat, and just folding in one side and one sleeve toward the middle. My wife noted that at the retail stores, they have a flat piece of plastic that they lay on the t-shirt and do a quick fold. I was thinking I might get a piece of plastic about the size of the square part of the shirt today and just keep it around the house.

Now that I've put to field testing, I think it's a bit overrated. The problem is that there's a loose side that makes the clothes difficult to transport. Every time I fish a shirt out, a bunch of other shirts come unfolded around it. (It is still fun to do it, though.)
