Caring for Your New Items
All of our rag dolls come with clothing that is removable and washable. In the case of that occasional childhood accident, even the soft body can be carefully laundered. Place the doll body in a stocking to keep it firm during the washing process. Place in your washing machine on a cycle using cold or lukewarm water with a good spin cycle at the end to remove as much water as possible from the doll. Dry in the shade to prevent fading. Although you are able to wash your dolls, keep in mind that regular washing will lead to fading and they will no longer look brand new. Do not tumble dry your clothing or the bodies as they may shrink and the wool hair will matt.
