Fresh (air) is best! Drying your washing in the fresh air is healthier and cheaper too. There are many types of clotheslines and airers to choose from. If you feel that your laundry won’t come out as soft as in the clothes dryer, there are a few ways to solve that problem.. Use a liquid fabric softener in the wash and toss the laundry in the heat of the dryer for the first 10 minutes, then line dry. If you don’t use liquid softener, dry in the clothes dryer for 10 minutes, then remove and hang on the line. The sun has a natural bleaching affect on some fabrics, so if you are concerned about that, leave items turned inside out, or dry in the shade. Clothing hung outside, especially on a breezy day, smell wonderful – you just can’t beat it! Posted by Gary M → February 27, 2011 at 9:48 PM under Clotheslines and Laundry
