Teddy bears in washing machine?

[Swippy]

Help! My mum has put a wash on and put through a whole lot of soft toys that were hand wash only. I totally appreciate her trying to help but the fur is now all sticky and clumpy, how do I resolve this? Not sure if this is where I post? Are they ruined or can I fix?

Tumble dry in a pillowcase on low heat with several pairs of trainers in it.

Fab ok I will try that thanks!

soft toys are usually fine going through the wash, once dried. I dry on near radiator. even the surface wipe only ones are ok.

I'm always putting soft toys in the wash. They will probably look better once dried. 👍
