Line drying baby clothes?

Question

Just wondering me and my husband are having an disagreement about weather it is safe to line dry our infants clothes. I don't think it is a good idea!!!

Answer 1

People lined-dried all their clothes, including the baby clothes, for years and years before we had dryers.  Of course it is safe.  They will be softer if you use the liquid softener in your washing machine.  You will love the wonderful smell of line dried clothes.

Answer 2

It's perfectly safe to line dry their clothes, in fact, the clothes will stay new-looking longer and will shrink less. It is more work, however, and I can understand if you don't want to do it for that reason. Good luck!

Answer 3

It is 100% safe... If you tend to use bleach on your baby's clothes, to get out stains, you would be doing more harm... The sun naturally bleaches clothes.

Answer 4

I personally wouldn't. The clothes feel stiff when they are dry, and bugs can be attracted tot hem if its hot eough. And also they might get bird p**p on them.

Answer 5

If your husband is the one that's hanging them, then yes,  it is safe. If it's you that has to hang them then the answer is no, it is not safe.
