How to fold short sock
Open your drawer and take out your shorter socks, also known as invisible socks or stockings. Now, follow us step by step to learn how to fold them the right way!
Step 1: Fold in half
The first step in folding your stocking is simple. Take your short stocking, put the pairs together so that they line up, and fold in half.
Step 2: Position
At this stage we are almost there! Check that the stockings, when folded in half, are straight and aligned. Then, separate the first edge to proceed to the next step.
