A 24-inch column of three compartments hangs from a rod or a wire shelf and leaves the rest of the closet height free. Each shelf measures 12 inches square, enough for a stack of folded sweaters, shirts, and accessories that would otherwise take up a dresser drawer or a floor basket.
Rigid plastic shelving sits inside each level, which is what keeps a stack of knitwear from bowing the fabric into a hammock. Weight presses down onto a flat panel instead of onto the cloth alone, so the fronts of the compartments stay square and the column keeps its shape as items come and go.
At 24 inches tall the organizer takes up the upper third of a standard reach-in closet, leaving clearance beneath it for shirts, trousers, or a laundry basket on the floor. Short columns also suit a child's closet, where the top shelf is out of reach and the rod sits low.
Folded knitwear piled on one deep shelf turns into an avalanche the moment something gets pulled from the middle. Splitting that pile across three canvas compartments gives each group its own level, so a sweater comes out without disturbing the two above it and the stack keeps the height it was built to.
