Snow Bleachong Does It Work?

I was having a conversation with my partner about how great it was to be getting on top of the backlog of washing (mainly his might I add, Mister 4 t-shirts a day 
) from winter. I wondered if there was a better/faster way of getting washing dried in winter than them it being strewn over airers and radiators, so I looked and I found snow bleaching. Apparently you hang it out on cold but dry days, the water freezes, you scrunch the clothes and the ice particles come out and et voila your clothes are dry. Now I see there's a certain amount of logic to this, however I am also quite sceptical due to body heat from hands melting ice particles, etc. So I was wondering if anyone has tried this? If so does it actually work?

Yeah it seems illogical but logical at the same time

@Brodiedo83 The only thing I can say is it will be like hanging them out in the summer, it will just take longer because the ice has to melt first in order to dry. I don't think you can get 100% of the ice out of the clothes by wringing them, but I have never done that. LOL
