The job of a mother never ends; she has to look after her kids, do the cooking, washing and even do the tiresome job of folding clothes, which can take ages.
Folding t-shirts is a chore which is often boring and is usually left for the end of the day.
However, in this article I will explain how to fold a t-shirt in a jiffy: 2 seconds, to be exact! There is a trick of folding your shirts in 2 seconds and trust me there is no surprise element involved; it's just another way of holding a shirt before folding.
Before you begin, you would need a clean table on which you can easily lay your shirt.
Make sure that the shirt is properly flat with the side in front of you.
You do not need to place table cover on the table as it could cause hindrance when you try to pinch a part of the shirt.
Next thing to do is to think of an imaginary line being drawn across the middle of the t-shirt and being stopped just before the edge.
Now pinch the t-shirt using your left arm's thumb and forefinger exactly from where from where it was stopped short of the edge.
Ensure that the front and the back of the t-shirt are properly pinched.
Keeping the first pinch tight, think of another imaginary line being drawn directly up the t-shirt and using your right hand thumb and forefinger, pinch the shirt on the shoulder seam which would be exactly above the point again.
Just like the previous pinch, the front and the back of the fabric would need to be tightly pinched.
After the second pinch, take it down behind your hand and pinch your shirt at the bottom, exactly under the two pinches and then pinch the bottom of the shirt together with your original pinch.
This time both the front and the back of the shirt should be grabbed.
At this step you should have the bottom and the top of the shirt pinched by your right hand (your hands should have formed a cross in this step).
Now comes the easy part: holding tight to the pinches uncross your hands, which will result in bringing pinch one, your left hand, up and away.
The end result of this would be the shirt hanging down from your both hands, make sure to shake the shirt in order to clear out any creases.
Finally lay the shirt back on the table with sleeves touching the table first and folding back.
This way the shirt would easily fold away without you having to spend so much time.
This trick would need a little practice and in no time you would be surprising your family with this folding technique.
