Hey, I have one of those and use it for drying sweaters that would otherwise not do well in the dryer. It's no trouble at all - in fact I'd say it's a well-behaved helper.

Jim says, in answer to my question where would you dry something flat "In the oven?" "What's so funny?" I forgot to give him the context. He use to have a sweater rack, he says. How about a plastic window screen over the bathtub? OUrs were $10 from the window company, Fingerle may sell them too. In the specials section. ANd he sees lots of them at the curb now. Vinyl coated fiberglass.

Depending on the faric, I sometimes dry my sweaters folded onto a hanger (if the fabric is sturdy enough not to pull out of shape. Otherwise I clean off the dryer and lay the garment flat on top of it while I dry my other clothes -- then, after one load is our of the dryewr, I turn the garment over for the next load. Where the garment is too big to lie flat, I drape the edges back over the top of the garment as loosely as they'll stay.

Does the heat from the dryer cause them to shrink while they are on it?
