You don't need dryer sheets if you're hang drying your clothes, which reduces wear on the clothes and uses less energy, along with requiring one less appliance, unless you have a combo washer/dryer.
I started hang drying my clothes maybe 4 years ago and I'm definitely not going back
Yeah, I hang dry most of my clothes, but I use a dryer for towels because they get really coarse otherwise, and bed sheets because I don't really have somewhere to hang them
You should enjoy the smell of them after they were freeze dried on the clothes line in the winter time. Growing up, my mother had a wringer/washer but no clothes drier. So she had to hang almost all the laundry outside on a clothes line-- even when it was well below freezing out. My Mother and Grandmother also made our own soap from tallow and lye after we butchered a cow for the winter.
We used it for everything, laundry, hand soap, and bath soap. Stuff would remove to hide off your ass due to the amount of lye used. Ahhh, the life of growing up dirt poor on a small farm.
