Guys, how do you all store your sweaters, especially the more delicate ones?

Folded in a cedar-lined drawer.

Cashmere (scarf and) sweaters are folded and stored in a zipped plastic blanket bag.

Cotton and wool sweaters are hung in wardrobe.

You hang your sweaters? Don't they stretch out?

So far they have not and a few were purchased about seven years ago.

Using a dryer (which I no longer use for sweaters), weight gain, wear-and-tear and not being careful as caused issues with sweaters in the past but not hanging them.

Folded, ideally in cedar drawers or cedar lined drawers (esp if you've ever had moths).

Don't hang them. They stretch out.
