Care Instructions
Keeping yourcrochet cat bedclean is super easy, but it’s always important to check the care instructions on the yarn you use. For example, I made my bed usingBernat Blanket Extra, which is both machine washable and dryable—making it really convenient!
If you use a different yarn, make sure to follow the specific washing guidelines. In general, spot cleaning is a good option for quick messes, but you can machine wash the bed when needed.
Just make sure to air dry if the yarn requires it to maintain its softness and shape. This will help yourfurry friendenjoy a fresh,comfortable placeto relax, ensuring the bed stays cozy and clean for a long time!
