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 (donโt 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.
