[LPT] If you’re laundering a thick comforter and want it to dry quickly, add a 100% wool throw with it in the dryer (lemmy.ca)

Real sheep’s wool is a moisture wick. Your comforter will dry in one cycle. Your wool throw will still be damp, but read wool doesn’t mildew like down or synthetics do.

We bought some wool dryer balls to replace dryer sheets. Re-usablity is great

Ooh, I’ve never heard of those. Does your laundry dry faster with them?

[-] Rozz@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

It's not magically faster drying, because we only have six, but basically all the things the other person said about better for the environment and cheaper.

Leave your wool throw out to dry on its own. This tip should help with energy conservation, lowering dryer cycles.

e: Sorry for typos in my op; I can’t figure out how to edit. (e2: can’t figure out how to edit my post, not comments. Just realised my edit makes me sound daft lol.)
