Instead of using fabric softener, get a set of dryer balls at the store. They should be made of durable but soft plastic, and they'll go into your dryer along with your clothes.
When the balls bounce around in the dryer, they soften your clothes by reducing stiffness, and they don't add any chemicals in the process.
I bought blue dryer balls once, and they did work well actually. The only problem was, after a few rounds in the machine I noticed the paint inside of my dryer started to peel off. We've stopped using the balls since then since we didn't like getting chips of paint on our clothes.

Dryer Balls by: Twila
My boyfriend brought dryer balls and I must agree that it make the clothes softer than what they would be just drying them with nothing. So it's definitely an A+ in my book especially if it's eco-friendly.
