If I put them in the dryer they'll wear out quickly and then I'll have to buy more sweaters and I don't want to.
But why not use hangers?
I've fixed a long road to my ceiling only for drying clothes 👍

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Yes, I feel like putting them on the floor somewhat negates the effect of washing them. I’m partial to a good drying rack, especially one where I can lay items flat.
Not OP, but sweaters often stretch when hung wet. I put mine on a towel on the bed or a table where/when the sun is shining in, and flip + move them after an hour or so. But I'm certainly no expert because I live in a warm dry place and hardly ever have to deal with sweaters.
Putting knitwear on a hanger will stretch it out, maybe even give it divots in the shoulders.
Sweatshirts are fine as they're woven but sweaters like OPs should be dried flat.
Some garments specifically say to lay flat to dry.
Nice rocks
First thing I noticed, esp. in the kids' suitcase. I collect rocks, too. Just dull rocks.
My people.
Nice. We usually put ours on chairs.
