Winter is here and clothes take much longer to dry if you hang them outside. On the other hand - not everyone has a clothes dryer and even those who do will not want to turn it on to dry one shirt (or military uniform).
But don't worry, there is a quick and cheap drying trick and it comes from Norway. Tom Ryder, a Norwegian YouTuber, uploaded a video in which he reveals how in two simple steps he manages to dry his clothes quickly, without an electric dryer. what did he do?
Well, in the video you see how he spreads a white towel on the floor before revealing his "Burrito Method" for drying clothes. "We're going to place our washed t-shirt here, on the towel," he says and then explains that the towel should be folded over the shirt until it's completely woven into it. "As soon as we reach the end and the whole shirt is wrapped in a towel - we will start to step on the roll", he continued and explained that the towel will thus absorb all the moisture from the shirt.

Another option, he says, is to twist the towel instead of stepping on it, although he doesn't recommend using this method, especially not for more delicate items of clothing.
While he opens the "burrito", he says that his method shortens the drying time every night to a few hours. "If you're in a warmer climate - you can probably put the shirt on now and it will dry on its own," he continued and explained, "but if you're in a cold area, you need to dry it a little more first." His second step is to hang the shirt over a rail and use a hair dryer on the lowest heat to get the rest of the moisture out. "Just be aware that if you set the heat too high you could ruin your shirt," Tor said.
