fuzzy white cotton towel) separately from clothes that might catch lint (such as a pair
of black linen pants).
• Do your clothes have excess static
electricity?
See comments below under There is static in my clothes after drying.
• Did you overload your dryer? Divide your larger load into smaller loads.

other similar material in the load?
Sometimes a person might forget to take a piece of paper or a tissue out of the pocket
of a pair of piuits, ttnd this paper, tissue, or similar material can cause excess lint in a
load of laundry. Confirm that the pockets of p;ints, shirts, and other articles of clothing
are empty before washing and drying.
