clothes dry even when it's not hot because of evaporation. The air holds moister. when a piece of clothing for example, is wet all the water that used to be there is now in the air. When it is cold, it will take a lot longer for this process to happen. cold air does not retain water very well so your shirt will stay wet if the air is too cold to hold the evaporated water.
