One glove finger on each hanger arm. One pair of gloves will do 5 hangers. And I forgot to state the obvious.....cut tips of fingers off and feed on to the hanger arms at the best position for holding your sweater. xxx

@Skeeter + anyone else with the problem of slippy hangers....cut the fingers off a pair of rubber washing-up gloves and feed them onto the hangers arms, then use in normal way. Works great for silk, satin and other sorts of slippery fabrics. The fingers don't have to be tight on the hangers arms in order to work. They'll stay put for the same reason as your clothes. (For short sleeved sweaters/jumpers, see my reply to a comment poster earlier on in this superb guide!! And this is one of the BEST guides to date. Thanx hunny! xxx

@skeeter- use the very thin non-slip hangers. They take up way less space in the wardrobe & any type of jumper/ sweater stays on.
