While the specific technique for rolling a blanket for display involves methods to create a neat, visually appealing cylinder, the provided reference focuses on a different approach for managing blankets: folding them neatly like a pillow for storage.
The reference highlights folding a blanket into a compact, tidy shape, primarily for storage purposes and ease of organization. The voiceover mentions keeping them:
"All neat and tidy like this not only so that you'll know when people use them and they need to be washed but they'll also fit quite nicely in a storage closet like this what you want to do is your"
This method ensures blankets are kept clean and organized, making them easy to store in places like a storage closet and also serving as a visual cue for usage status (e.g., needing washing). This folded, pillow-like form is suited for stacking or placing on shelves for neatness, which could be considered a form of display within a storage context, but it is distinct from traditional rolling techniques often used to showcase texture or edges on furniture or shelves.
Traditional Rolling Method (Not Covered in Reference)
For standard decorative rolling for display, a common method typically involves:
- Folding: Fold the blanket in half or thirds lengthwise, depending on the desired final width of the roll. Ensure edges are aligned neatly.
- Tight Roll: Starting from one end, roll the folded blanket tightly and evenly towards the other end. Maintain consistent tension to create a firm, cylindrical shape.
- Placement: Place the finished roll on a sofa, bed, or in a basket with the neatly rolled end visible for display.
This rolling method is visually different from the compact, pillow-like fold shown in the reference, serving an aesthetic purpose on furniture rather than optimizing space in a closet.
In summary, the provided reference illustrates a practical folding technique for storage, emphasizing neatness and organizational benefits, rather than a method for rolling a blanket specifically for decorative display on furniture.
