After you hand wash your sweaters, where/how do you dry them? (pulling, thin)

I guess you got the last one!!

I hang mine over my shower doors as long as they are dry. Or you can use a shower curtain rod too. Or, any door as long as it’s clean and dry.

That's pretty much what I do but I've found that many sweaters (even if can't be machine-WASHED) can go through the spin cycle. Then I finish up drying flat on a large doubled-up bath towel in a spare bedroom.

Oh - I do like the looks of that - wonder how difficult it is to balance multiple items so it doesn't tip?

Since I usually hand wash sweaters in the bathroom sink I just spread a towel out in the tub and let it dry there.

Oh that's a beauty. I use a mesh one too but it's just one layer. It does wind itself up somehow for storage.

I've always heard you're not supposed to hang sweaters up because they'll stretch. I think the rolling them in a towel first is a good idea, then I would put it flat on the mesh thing and shape it the way i want it to be.

You let sweaters "hang" dry and they're gonna be a mile long!

Then again, I guess you could just add a wide belt...

There is a fold up rack with a mesh top called a “sweater dryer.” I put it on the floor or on a table and lay the damp sweater on it. $17.00 on Amazon.

Used to do dry this flat in the bath tub, 1 or 2 at the time and old towels underneath.
