And, even after all that, when you go to put the sheet on the bed you still find a sock.
I use a laundry bag for any sheets to avoid this
Good LPT
Thats why I stopped using dryers and just hang stuff out to dry. Also saves a lot of energy.
Look at Mx. Privilege over here talking about wide open living spaces.
Even in a small apartment it’s doable, speaking from experience. Just get the kind of rack you can hang over a door or radiator.
It’s nice to have a house, eh. Or a balcony. Or both. Or a nearby meadow. Or some electrical wiring attached between apartment buildings.
I dry stuff inside on a rack like this. I’ve got a yard, but that yard is full of birds who like to sit and shit on my clean clothes.
Sheets and towels go in the dryer though.
Yeah everyone has these. It’s the privilege going off in here like sheets just need to be hung somewhere like everyone has a yard. Let alone a balcony or not limited in room.
I hang them on doors, they don’t take long to dry.

Well yardeedard.
But that’s good though. Good for the environment and stuff. ✊
“Oh look at fancy lad with an little space in some part of their living space for temporarily drying clothes”
Lmao
My previous apartment has none of those, just a rack in the bedroom and an open window.
Cool that you could fit a rack in your bedroom
If you can fit a bed, you can fit a drying rack. It just makes for a slightly uncomfortable sleeping position.
You mean… put the rack on top of the bed? I don’t want a wet bed.
Not for this reason anyway…
I picture the sheet having the hangdog look of a dog that stole a steak off the cutting board.
I’ll never understand why dryers can’t simply reverse direction several times during the cycle to prevent this from happening all the time.
I think once the clothes are trapped in the bedsheet it’s game over. I’m not sure changing directions would prevent it in the first place, unless it was literally just shaking or something close to it.
It actually does help! Many commercial grade dryers have exactly this feature and it does exactly that. You can sometimes find it at brand new laundromats and I can confirm it somehow magically stops them from wrapping into one big old ball
As an aside I successfully folded a fitted sheet recently, and obviously I’m a wizard now.
Fitted sheets are garbage. Get extra large flat ones and one of those alligator clip elastic strap thingies that holds it together underneath the mattress.
