Dring wool Q

[heamae]

How long does it take for your wool to dry???
I just got some longies, washed them Sat. morning and they are still damp!

First did you wring them between 2 towels.

Then I lay them on top of my dryer between to towels. This seems to help. I had one take me almost a week to dry. When I did it on the dryer it took me 3 days.

I usually spin the water out of mine in the washer LOL They usually dry in 24-36 hours I've even been known to put them in the dryer on the drying rack on low heat to speed things up LOL

i put mine over the shower and it usually takes 2/3 days for it to dry. we leave the window open majority of the time

If mine aren't dry on their own within 24 hours, i set them up on a drying rack in front of a box fan.

How fast they dry depends on a lot of things!
Be sure to roll the wool between 2 towels to squeeze out the water and put them on a drying wrack where they can get a breeze.
When it rains outside, my wool takes forever to dry because of all the humidity, but taking 2 days to dry isn't uncommon.

I soak the water out of them with towels, and then set them in front of the dehumidifier. It takes about 2 days or so. I once tried to dry a soaker without wringing it in towels or putting it in front of the dehumidifier and it never dried, just started smelling really bad.

I squeezed them all in two towls and then left them in the basement which could be what took so long at first. Last night when they still werent dry I brought them up to the dinning room. The whole house is a bit cold though. Maybe I should try the bathromm. Gets really hot n steamy when dh showers.

if you have a fan put them on the back of a chair with the fan blowing on it
