Care Instructions

1. Washing:

  • Hand Wash Recommended: Gently hand wash with mild soap or baby shampoo in lukewarm water to preserve the fibers and shape.
  • Avoid Hot Water: Hot water can cause cotton to shrink, so use only lukewarm water.
  • Do Not Machine Wash: Machine washing may distort the shape or damage delicate stitching, especially with small parts or attached accessories.

2. Drying:

  • Press to Remove Excess Water: After washing, press (donโ€™t wring) the amigurumi between two towels to remove excess water.
  • Air Dry: Lay flat on a dry towel and reshape as necessary. Avoid direct sunlight, as it may cause colors to fade.
  • Do Not Use a Dryer: Heat from the dryer can cause shrinkage or distort the shape.

3. Additional Tips:

  • Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Bleach or fabric softeners may damage the yarn fibers and colors.
  • Spot Clean for Small Stains: If possible, try spot cleaning small areas with a damp cloth and mild soap rather than washing the whole piece.
  • Yummies with Plastic Eyes: May not be suitable for children under 3. As with any items that have small parts, please inspect for loose parts before each use.
