I have several towels to fold and put away each time so they at least have to be folded in half lengthwise and twice the other way to make a nice square stack. And I'm 5'1", having lost an inch from my younger height. I only use one towel a week myself but it's not just me. Now, washcloths I do only fold in half. I used to do fourths, but it made two stacks, that took up the same space as one stack of single folds.

It only takes me a few minutes to fold and put away two large loads of laundry, even when the cat helps. It's one of the few household chores that's actually satisfying instead of drudgery.

I'm also good at folding fitted sheets into a nice tidy unwrinkled square despite the fact a queen sheet is well beyond my wingspan.

Cause it's easy and it does a lot of damage
