Articles of laundry, such as towels, of different sizes are sorted. The articles are clamped from a jumble. The clamp moves upward for sensing a size. For sorting, different size articles are blown to different tracks, such as different conveyors. The articles, resting on the conveyors, are conveyed to different exits for the different sizes.
