What happened

Little Willy's brand children's hooded sweatshirts are being recalled because the drawstrings in the hood or neck pose a strangulation hazard to young children. The recall affects sweatshirts sold in sizes ranging from XS (for 2-year-olds) through XXL (for 10-year-olds). The cotton fleece sweatshirts come in two color patterns: dark grey with light grey stripes and a red hood, or purple with navy blue stripes and a green hood. These garments are identifiable by an elbow patch on the right arm and the Little Willy logo on the front.

According to the recall notice, consumers should immediately remove the garments from children's access. An affected consumer can either remove the drawstrings themselves to eliminate the hazard or return the sweatshirts to Little Willy's to have the drawstring removed by the company.
