I put a pipe which would not crush on the end of the drier pipe, and shoved it in with the washer pipe, and it has worked fine.

Condensing dryer with a continuous drain?
Sure. What’s the question? How to make the pipe on your dryer fit the waste?
Can you show us a picture of what you've got?

and there isn’t an adapter with that kit? There is with some:
In which case it depends how much or little you want to get involved in fashioning an adapter
You can straight buy already done options:
Or you can make something with a few bits of pipe, even just cutting an old washer hose (stop by your local tip with a pair of scissors
) and poking the new pipe down inside the old and taping it up with electrical tape will be fine, these aren’t high pressure systems and don’t even need a seal if arranged so water doesn’t flow up hill. The only thing to watch for in that case is when you empty a sink full of water (if this is connecting to the pipework under the sink), it can leak out of any poorly mated union, worse if the u bend for the sink is a bit blocked
