correct way of washing

Wash it with cold or warm water and use liquid soap or even body wash. Do not rub hard, do it gently and try to drain the accumulated water as much as possible, squeezing the doll but without twisting it. Now that it is clean it needs to dry:  Do not use the dryer, put it on the outside but avoid strong direct sun that could damage the colors. Do not hang it or you will run the risk of it deforming. You will have to leave it horizontal and turn it several times to make sure it dries everywhere. Be patient, sometimes the weather does not accompany and may take time to dry.

Oh dear.  I just throw everything in the washing machine on cold wash or delicate.

I have never tried to wash a more complex toy, but usually I stick then in a tied off pillow case and stick in the washing machine on delicate, but words of wisdom never and I mean ever stick them in the dryer....I did it ONCE........never again and yes to not hanging them I do the blocking think and change position as they dry...

I definitely do it this way for my more delicate ones but most of the time just put it in the wash on delicate cycle. I also made a little stand with just a piece of wood a thin stick that i can place it on so it dries all around :loveliness:

Muchas gracias, creo que si es necesario, tener extremo cuidado al lavarlos y tambien al ponerlos a secar, porque tienden a cambiar de forma y ponerse bastante feos, gracias por su ayuda

I do too, and then toss in the dryer! Never have had any problems, thank goodness! :)

I think it also depends on what yarn you use right, you should always test your yarn to see if the colours bleed and then plan accordingly.
