How do you fold towels?

I personally fold them in half once and then half again "hamburger" style, and then I fold them in thirds. However, my boyfriend folds them in half and in half and them rolls them up. I think it's odd that he does this, because I'd never see anyone do that before. But his roommate says he does that too. So how does everyone else fold towels?

hahahhaa, what a funny topic, but I love this because it made me laugh hehehe. Well, I never think much how I fold my towel, I just fold it like a blanket or a bed sheet then put it in the drawer. I seldom fold towel because everyday I used it and then I just put it in the hanger. But I do agree with you that your boyfriend has a strange way of folding a towel, hehehe.

See? I'm not the only one that thinks he's weird. It was just so funny that I'd never seen anyone fold towels that way before and two minutes later I hear that his roommate does it too!

Hi. raineyes. I know that we roll the towels up too. It makes it very easy for them to fit into the linen closet or the towel container. My husband has started doing this, and now I have too. It looks neater. Before, I used to fold the towels in half and then I would fold them in a smaller form before placing them into the closet.

Haha, this questin made me laugh out loud. The reason I say this because one day my mom literally screamed at me for folding the towels the wrong way. Everyone I know is most particular about how they fold their towels, more so than their clothes, which just makes me laugh. Anyway, we fold our towels like this. Hold them longways and fold them in half. Then fold that in half the other way and in half again. That way when you pull them out of the closet and unfold them once they are in the position they need to be in to hang on the towel rack. That's the method to her maddness I guess.

My mom is the same way about the towels. They have to be folded just so, haha. And now it's rubbed off me! People who don't fold towels the way I was raised to do it wrong. (Just kidding of course. :D) That makes sense, actually.
