Care Instructions
Handwashing your Keina the Sushi plushy (and all Squishmallows in general) is the best way to keep them looking their best.
Avoid using harsh bristle brushes, as these can damage the fabric. Instead, use a gentle detergent and avoid scrubbing too vigorously.
Rinse the Squishmallows thoroughly, and then allow them to air dry. Do not put them in the dryer, which can damage the fabric.
For best results, wash your Squishmallows in a mesh laundry bag to protect them from snags and tears. With proper care, your Squishmallows will stay soft and cuddly for years.
Machine washing them is perfectly fine with the right settings. Just use cold water and normal detergent.
Put your Squishmallow in a pillowcase or mesh laundry bag before washing on a gentle cycle for extra care.
Be sure to tumble dry on low heat; higher temperatures can damage the stuffing and cause the fabric to shrink or melt.
