If the duvet cover has a slit on the side...
The simplest, but probably the most time-consuming method is the classic one. Today it is also used for modern models of duvet covers, in which the cut is made on the side
Through this incision, the blanket is carefully placed inside, and then its corners are carefully straightened inside. Difficulties arise if the incision is small and the blanket is bulky, for example, made of holofiber
On top of that, the corners of the blanket just don’t want to stay in place. They constantly shift, and thereby significantly complicate the task of the housewife.
There are three ways to quickly tuck a blanket into this duvet cover:
- call someone close to you for help so that they hold the corners;
- use special clamps;
- buy or sew a special model of duvet cover with special cuts for the arms (they are made next to the corners of the cover);
- buy or sew a model with buttons or a zipper along the entire width of the duvet cover.
The latter option is being used more and more often. And there are two reasons for this: firstly, it is convenient to tuck in the blanket; secondly, the blanket will never fall out of such a cover.
