At some point (in a galaxy, long long time ago) I learned to turn jeans, shorts and hoodies inside out when putting them into washing machine. For some reason, I don't do the same with smaller, simple things like T-shirts and underwear.

I forgot what was the reasoning behind it, but when I think about it, can't seem to come to a conclusion which way is better.

Is one way better than another and why?

I turn everything inside out because I line dry outside. Since UV bleaches fabric I'd rather fade the inside.

    I usually dry inside and I make sure to turn stuff inside out before hanging it on the rack but I do it because I believe it dries better when things like pockets can be stretched out.

    UV is a great point, I never realized that.
