So that moisture is released quicker.
The sun in nature evaporates any moisture in all living things, but this happens over a much slower time because living things have shells and skin to defend against the evaporation process.
The same happens to bodies of water, the lower water level of a lake is protected by water at the surface level and is always much colder than the surfacetemperature The top surface level of a lake is being constantly evaporated by the suns warmth.
The same happens with damp clothes, inside the house it is protected from the suns rays. So it has to be hung up outside to receive warmth and the evaporation process caused by the suns rays.
This is why it is best to hang clothes out during the day rather than at night.
In hot countries like Thailand people never hang clothes out to dry, the reason being that the suns rays are so powerful that it can evaporate moisture from clothes in minutes.
You can go for a swim in these countries fully clothed, as I have done on holiday. After a couple of minutes all the clothes will be dry again.
