How to Keep Your Towels Soft When Line Drying:
First, replace all of your fabric softeners in the bin of your machine with half a cup of white vinegar, then always add half a cup of baking soda to the wash water, but you can also opt out of adding this. However, baking soda helps brighten and soften your towel, also make sure to use less washing detergent, and when you’re washing towels, don’t add any other clothing, so they can just wash by themselves. Use one tablespoon of washing soda directly to the water, then set a timer for 3 minutes, and add half a cup of baking soda. Once done washing, make sure to give the towel a strong shake or snap to loosen up the fibers and give them a fluff, then hang your towels, and let them dry in the sun.
