    That works if the sheet only has elastic on the corners. The last few sets of sheets I have bought have elastic all the way around the edge of the fitted sheet. Does well on the bed but damn they’re impossible to fold.

      It’s really not bad with full elastic bands. Make a rough square using the point of the corners as one corner and the only non-elastic fold as the opposite. Just flop the sloppy elastic to the inside. I then fold in thirds and again in thirds. Just fold the weird parts to the inside each time.

      My wife still thinks it’s magic after 20 years.
