How Do You Store Your Sweaters?

I always seem to have a problem with where to store my sweaters.  If I hang them then they get those shoulder humps.  If I fold them and put them in a drawer then I end of with creases.

 

How do you store yours?

I don't wear a lot of sweaters, but the ones I have hang on oversized hangers.  They aren't heavy, so they don't get the shoulder issues.

I love sweaters!  I never, ever hang them -- I fold them and place them on shelves in my closet, and shelves in my tall dresser.  Yes, they crease, so I get out my steamer when I'm ready to wear it.  Usually only takes 30 seconds to steam out all creases (never iron directly on the nap).

I just fold them and stack on a shelf in the closet.  I've also put them in a dresser drawer.

My sweaters are folded & kept on a self or in a drawer.

I have two canvas hangers each with eight cubby holes in them which I hang over the bar in my closet (they attach with velcro).  Depending upon the size of the sweaters, I can fit four to six sweaters in each cubby.  I don't have enough tops to fill them, so I use the extra cubbies for other things.  These are great space savers.

i love those cubby things,  i have two but since i moved i can no longer use them -  the closets are like 18th century sized.  they fit like, 3 outfits.

 

i keep my sweaters in a cedar chest or in a bin and go downstairs to get them..

Like some others here, I store mine folded in a closet shelving system and use a steamer if they get any creases.
