With Lifehacker's step-by-step instructions, it's easier than you think.
How to fold a sheet with an elastic band
1. Determine where the sheet is on the long side. Place your hands inside the product, grasp the corners along the long side. It should be parallel to the floor, and the short sides should be perpendicular.
2. Turn half of the sheet inside out. To do this, quickly make a rotational movement with brushes so that the upper corners of the canvas on the inside are outside.
3. Connect the two corners of the linen. To do this, put the turned-out corners of the sheet on your hands and imagine that you are clapping your hands.
Then, with your right hand, turn the corner of the sheet over onto your left palm and straighten it.
4. Transfer the sheet to your right hand, and with your left, straighten the other two corners.
Find the inner corner of the sheet on the left. Align it with the outside, slightly stretching the fabric to the sides. After that, the product will be folded in half.
5. Lay the sheet on a flat surface. It can be a table, floor, sofa or mattress.
6. Flatten the fabric to make a rectangle with an arch cut in the middle.
6. Fold the sheet into a narrow strip. To do this, mentally divide the canvas into three parts horizontally. Take the top and wrap it down, and then repeat the action.
7. Make a neat rectangle out of the strip. You can start from any side: for example, put the right third on the middle one, and then repeat. Or, if you prefer, roll the fabric into a tight roll.

How to fold a sheet with an elastic band on the table
1. Lay the sheet on the table inside out. Another flat surface is also suitable: the floor, a sofa or a mattress. The main thing is that there is enough space for the long side of the product.
2. Tuck the left corners into each other. To do this, straighten the bottom corner. Hold with your left hand for him, and with your right - for the place on the elastic opposite. Then move your left hand under your right, and the fabric will fit over your hand.
Straighten the upper left corner with your right hand. Place the left one inside it to match the corners.
If your sheet has extra elastic at the corners, ignore them.
3. Do the same, only mirrored. Start from the bottom right corner. Turn it out.
Then place the bottom corner inside the top one. Get a sheet folded in half.
4. Spread the fabric on the table and tuck your hands into the corners.
5. Lift the sheet and put your hands together.
6. Place the left corner over the right and turn it inside out.
7. Spread the fabric with your left hand while your right is inside. Then put the sheet back on the table.
8. Make a strip out of linen. You can start from anywhere. Divide the product visually into three parts and wrap it sequentially along these folds - for example, horizontally.
9. Repeat the action with the resulting design, folding it in three. If desired, you can roll the strip into a tight roll instead.

For 10 years in IT, I tried a lot: I worked as a system administrator and tester, I wrote in a dozen different languages programming, led the computer department of the editorial office of a printed newspaper and led news feeds high-tech portals. I can patch KDE2 for FreeBSD - and tell you in detail about all the nuances of this process. I dream about homemade R2-D2 and space flight.
