Can you fold a fitted sheet?

This came up on a horse forum. I didn't realize there are people who actually CAN fold a fitted sheet. ...and fold it FLAT! I have done the wad/stuff for years. Someone posted a photo essay of how it is done, and it looks so easy.

Here, it has kitties in it...

I almost can't wait to launder sheets. Almost. I'm sure I'll be able to control myself.
It really can't be that easy, can it?


The original question was how to figure out the fitted sheet for a King size bed, to put it on the matress. A Standard King is 76x80 and my California King is 76x84. The Standard is nearly square and you really can't figure out the fitted sheet unless you get it on wrong or right. Two of my sheet sets have directional fabric while the other two are solid. On the solid fitted sheets, I use a sharpie pen to mark a 'dash' line on the long-side of the sheet, at all four corners near the elastic. This mark tells me that side of the fitted sheet goes on the sides of the matress and not the ends.

Anyhow, the conversation morphed into how to best wad/stuff the fitted sheet and someone posted the above link about how to actually FOLD them. I was blown away!
