Default Clothesline isn't right for everything

Clothesline in summer is a good thing, but I strongly prefer the not-crispy feeling of tumbled clothes for certain things: underwear I strongly prefer be dried indoors. Call me a prude if you must, it's just a thing with me.

Both I and the wife strongly prefer towels dried on the clothesline. Pants are a tossup. Shirts and socks, however, really need to go through the dryer.

I don't know how well the attic-sourced air would work in the wintertime. I'm planning on seriously ramping up my maker skills this summer, and may install a large solar air heater and/or solar water heating (might just go with a DC element in the regular water heater for that last) once I get all the items on the Honey Do list knocked out.
