Folding is the best way to store your wool sweaters which helps them to keep their shape and prevent any wrinkles.<\/p>\n<p>Fold your sweaters by following these simple steps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lay your sweater down flat<\/li>\n<li>Start by folding one sleeve across the back of the sweater. The sleeve should lie flat, parallel to the upper edge of the sweater.<\/li>\n<li>Fold the other sleeve in the same manner, so it lies flat next to the first folded sleeve.<\/li>\n<li>Fold the bottom hem of the sweater up toward the neckline, so the sweater is folded in half horizontally. The sleeves should be neatly tucked inside the fold.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1559140963143{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650015568757{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650015568757{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;4478&#8243; img_size=&#8221;600&#215;400&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1559216895048{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;bottom-to-top&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>3.
