[post_page_title]Clothes are only hung up to dry[/post_page_title]
After laundry comes the drying. Naturally, electric clothes dryers aren’t used. Thankfully, the simplest solutions are sometimes the best. Just like our great-grandparents did before the invention of the modern tumble dryer in the 1930s, the Amish use clotheslines. Laundry is often hung on a traditional T-line, but sometimes more elaborate setups are used.
For example, one Amishman invented a spool that allows a line of clothes to be strung from somewhere near the house to a tree or the side of a barn, which is a huge space-saving measure for people who often find space scarce. In wintertime, clothes are hung under overhangs or in enclosed porches.
