Long ago some kind poster gave us this URL. It's probably the best household hint I've ever received. I don't have drawer or shelf space for all the stretchy knits I own. The recent Lisa Rinna and Logo TSVs come to mind. Now I'm able to buy more because of this hint...they don't wrinkle or get stretched out and I can see what I've got.

Enjoy using this!

I think I saw Jayne Brown demonstrate this once. Do you think this method would bulk up your closet?

I use all huggable hangers and don't have a problem with "bulk". When your knits are in place, they're very high up on the hangers, higher than other clothing.

What an awesome tip! I printed it out (because my brain would never remember this) and am going to display it in my closet. I have tried rolling up some of these knits like the designer and hosts recommend, and have ended up with a wrinkled mess. Hanging them does tend to stretch them. I can't wait to try this! Thank you so much for sharing.

Kachina--Do you do this with just sweaters or also with rayon/spandex tops, liquid knits ,etc also?

I've been hanging my knits this way for years. I'm pretty sure Kathy Levine showed us how to do this many years ago.

I don't do it with liquid knits because they don't seem to stretch but I do use it for anything that feels like it would stretch with hanging.

Thanks for posting this. I don't have the space to put all of my sweaters in drawers, and if they're on shelves they end up covered with a cat. Hanging is the best option for me.
