As we brace for the biting cold of autumn and winter, the task of drying clothes looms as a pesky chore. However, a woman with some nifty know-how has unveiled a trick that could get your clothes from washer to wardrobe in record time. The problem of indoor laundry drying strikes a chord with many across Britain, particularly as the fast-drying luxury of sunny days fades away.
Those seeking to cut down on laundry drying time might find just what they need in advice from a cleaning aficionado. Cleaning guru Nicola Lewis, who dispenses her wisdom to nearly 200k followers via her Instagram handle @thisgirlcanorganise, let slip a 'sneaky' washing machine feature that can slash the humidity in clothing during the chillier months. In a recent Instagram reel with the caption "How to dry your clothes indoors", she illustrates flipping her washing machine to the "Drum/Spin" option.
She promotes this technique with the catchy instruction "Double Spin for the Win." According to Nicola, one savvy step to make your laundry drier right after it's washed is to let it undergo an extra spin cycle while still in the drum, as covered by the Mirror, reports the Manchester Evening News . No water is introduced, but this bonus spin wrings out additional moisture.
Her video's caption advocates: "Double spin your laundry! Your clothes will come out much drier allowing them to dry quicker. Always give your clothes a quick shake before hanging to dry to remove any creases." Nicola shares her savvy tip.
