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.

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.
