Laundry can be tricky at the best of times, but especially when drying clothes during wet weather.

To make this easier, Caroline Solomon, known on TikTok as @neat.caroline, has imparted a revolutionary hack for swiftly reducing clothes drying time from the entire night down to merely an hour or two.

Dubbed the “burrito” method of laundry drying, she highlighted her technique in a video guide titled: “How to dry clothes fast without a dryer.”

In her clever demonstration, Caroline begins with spreading a towel out flat and situating a damp shirt at its base.

The next move in her routine is to snugly roll up the towel with the T-shirt from the bottom upwards, mirroring the wrap of a “burrito”.

Then comes the action of extricating extra moisture by firmly pressing onto the towel a task Caroline completes using her knees for added pressure.

Once unravelled, simply pop the clothing item on a drying rack, and according to the cleaning expert, it should “will dry in one to two hours instead of overnight”.

When Express.co.uk put the burrito strategy into practice, the results proved impressively effective.

For those in a crunch needing even swifter drying times, Caroline suggests a hairdryer post-burrito wrap can leave your top moisture-free in “one minute”.

Deyan Dimitrov, cleaning guru and founder of Laundryheap, also pitched in with several “quick-dry” hacks beneficial for housekeepers battling wet conditions during the colder months.

Among his invaluable advice is the suggestion to keep drying racks distanced from walls when air-drying garments in winter.

After washing your garments, try to hang them as far from any walls as possible it lets air circulate freely around the clothes while they’re drying and stops moisture from being trapped between the clothing and walls.

For clothes to dry "quickly and effectively", aim to leave plenty of room between each garment on the line or drying rack. The same principle goes for using hangers: it might seem odd, but allowing space between items can actually “speed up” the drying time by improving airflow.

Post-wash, dangle your damp duds in well-ventilated entranceways or other cosy nooks (think near radiators, by windows, or close to doors) inside your home.

Hot or cool breezes in these hubs will hasten the drying, making sure air keeps moving around the room and your clothes alike.

Banish any lingering damp or musty odours with a clever pre-drying trick. To do so, start by laying your clean laundry on a flat surface and top it with a fresh towel, then give it a quick iron.

This bit of heat starts the drying off right, while the towel soaks up extra moisture, keeping those nasty smells at bay.
