It's Like Origami for Clothes!

It's Like Origami for Clothes!
A long time ago, I saw this video on how to fold a t-shirt. It was in Japanese, she moved fast. I couldn't follow quickly enough. I was intrigued by the ease with which she did it, and how perfectly the shirt was folded, but I couldn't quite do it.

I found the video again today. I tried it. Repeatedly. After a few tries, I was so impressed that I had to fold and refold and refold a tshirt while each of my family members watched. Yes, even the kids.

Go. Watch. Learn. I will never again fold tshirts any other way.

  7. Um, do you have realplayer? or something that will play video files?

    Do you have a firewall that prevents downloads?

    I get the white page that says done too, but the video plays in my realplayer after it downloads

  14. I think it looks for MediaPlayer 10 which I only have 9. I might have real player tucked away somewhere. I'll have to try that. It just so happens I'm still on the antiquated operating system of Windows 98.

  15. I can't fucking do it. I watched and tried and rewatched and retried and watched some more and tried some more and I just can't fucking do it and it's pissing me off and why the fuck doesn't my video player have a slow-the-fuck-down button?

    I'm mapquesting directions to your house. I'm learning this if it kills me.

  16. lmao, it takes several watches and tries... but you're more than welcome to come practice on my laundry!

  17. LMAO! I was about to tell you that I had several loads of laundry you could demonstrate on, E! :)

    I tried it about a 100 times before I got it. I'm not overly impressed, to be honest. I mean, yeah, it's a neat trick, but all of our t-shirts are old and stretched out and no matter how you fold them they don't look all neat and crisp like the one in the video.
