So I have heard common wisdom is to bring a silk liner for your Camino (+/- a sleeping bag depending on your preference and season).
Specifically regarding silk liners, all of the ones I've found say not to dry them on high heat as they may shrink. Many say wash cold and line dry.
Even my quilt's care instructions actually say to dry on no-heat setting as it may melt the fabric used, and it's a synthetic quilt!
... should I be looking for a synthetic liner +/- sleeping bag that can take the heat of a 45C/113F dryer? I know I can use a freezer for 72+ hours as well but there's no chance of that on the Camino....
I didn't realize I couldn't dry this quilt or I wouldn't have bought it... :/
