Step 1

Start by laying the fitted sheet on a flat surface with the elastic band facing upwards.


Step 2

Grab the bottom corners of the fitted sheet and turn them inside out, so the edge seams are facing outwards.


Step 3

With one hand in each of the bottom corners, tuck them into the top two corners, ensuring they’re aligned.


Step 4

Fold the left side of the sheet into the centre.


Step 5

Fold the right side of the sheet into the centre, creating a rectangle shape.


Step 6

Fold the top half of the sheet to the centre, followed by the bottom half.


Step 7

Now, fold both edges into the middle, forming a smaller rectangle.


Step 8

Finally, fold the sheet into equal thirds to achieve a neat and tidy rectangle.
