Title: How to only take off your pullover without the garment below it?
Question: Every time I take off my pullover the t-shirt below it comes up too and that's not really good looking. Is there a way to avoid this?

Answers:
sents: text: One way to take off your pullover is to start lifting it at the hip, and then kind of rolling it over your head, and finally pull out your hands.
text: This method does however require you turn the pullover inside out afterwards.
text: As you lift it from the waist, instead of pulling it directly off from the top, any garment under usually stays put.
text: You could tuck the t-shirt in your pants during the operation for extra protection, but most often it isn't necessary.

sents: text: First, I lift up the sweater just below my chest area so my shirt is exposed.
text: Then, I move over towards a table/ledge of some sort, pin the shirt between my body and the ledge, and pull off the rest of the sweater.
text: You can also, if for some reason there are no desks, tables, ledges, etc., lean against a wall and pin your shirt to it (curve your back or lean, if necessary).
text: Describing it makes it seem a lot harder than it is, but usually you can find a desk or something to do it on.
