Lets just skip the dryers and go "au naturale"!

I have a high efficiency Fisher/Paykel washing machine. Has the ability to get clothes very "dry" after being washed (I've tried wringing out clothes by hand and still can't seem to get them as dry as that washer). The question is, has anyone just skipped the dryer and hung them out on the line OUTSIDE in a cold climate (zone 4 here)? I have done this before. The clothes do dry, but it seems to take a few days and for awhile they freeze into funny shapes. I would imagine in winter the process is sublimation? I should do a load of laundry and hang them...neighbors already think i'm nuts
