Do adults really not know how to find fitted sheets? You fold it basically like a regular sheet, but tuck the corners inside each other.
I've learned how; can't speak for everyone though. But they're the ones that take the longest time due to the intricacy.
I'm also very meticulous about folding laundry, so everything fits nice and tidy in the linen closet.
I prefer the “fold it haphazardly, stuff it in the drawer, and I don’t care if it’s wrinkled when it goes on the bed next time” method, myself.
Whenever I tuck the corners into each other I end up with a lumpy irregular polygon which can’t be folded neatly like flat sheets
If you pull up the fitted part, you can establish parallel sides so you can form it into a rectangle that can be folded neatly
“Pull up” like three dimensionally? I do the best I can to square the blob up but always end up with too much fabric on the fitted corner to get a clean neat fold.
I’m the designated one who “knows how to fold fitted sheets” in our household btw 🤣
Yes, three dimensionally. Pull it up, and make a fold from the sewn point of the fitted corner parallel to one folded edge, and then the other edge likewise parallel to the remaining side. Now that you have a nice rectangle, lay the bunched portion down as flat as you can, and continue folding. Ta-dah.
