How does lint form in dryer

By far the most sensical, and most boring, is the idea that lint is cloth fibers from the clothing. During all that tumbling in the washer and dryer the clothes get knocked around.

This causes the fibers to break down and eventually fall away from the clothing. After they fall away from the clothing the fibers get jumbled around in the dryer until they eventually make their way to the exhaust vent, which pushed the air through the lint trap where the lint is caught. With the cloth fibers theory it is very important to clean out the lint trap after every use of the dryer. This is because the lint is a very dry and flammable fabric.

If too much builds up in the lint trap it has the potential to catch fire, burn up the dryer, burn down the house, and scare your kitten. It is not good to scare your kitten. It should be noted that the other two theories also attempt to explain how socks disappear, while this idea completely ignores the situation. Their fibers or threads are breaking apart. I hope that helps you solve why it is in your own dryer that lint seems to magically appear after each load.

All seem equally plausible. There was a theory that beings from another dimension remove socks at random from tumble dryers just to annoy us. But the dimensions must be balanced so they place wire coat hangers in wardrobes. Blend the lint with a generous blob of petroleum jelly and keep it in a sealed plastic baggie. The flame from a single match will ignite it and the lint will burn for ample time while you add wood to your fire. Just soak the sweaters in some hot water, wring them out and place them in the dryer.

Thoroughly clean the lint catcher before drying the sweaters and the wool lint you gather will be excellent raw material for homemade felt. Remove the lint from the lint trap after each load of laundry, but don't stop there. Your dryer vent also needs to be cleaned out twice a year to minimize fire risk and keep your dryer running efficiently. Actively scan device characteristics for identification.
