A method of folding women's tights on a hose shaping machine, whereby the tights are fitted onto respective pairs of tubular forms fitted to a carousel conveyor and set to a parted position in which the forms substantially lie in the same vertical plane; at least one of the forms is rotated to bring the forms together into a facing position in parallel planes; in time with the rotation of the forms into the facing position, a first tensioning member operates on the front of the body of the tights, in an intermediate plane between the forms, to slide the body in relation to the forms and form a center fold in the body; and a second tensioning member operates on the rear of the body, in the intermediate plane between the forms, to form an opposite center fold in the body.
