El Gringo Imports recalls hand-knitted girl's hooded sweaters with drawstrings due to strangulation risk for children. Consumers must remove the drawstring or request a refund.
The hooded sweaters have drawstrings through the hood which can pose a strangulation or entrapment hazard to children.
El Gringo Imports is recalling girl's hooded sweaters with drawstrings because they can cause strangulation or entrapment in children. This is a serious hazard that requires immediate action to prevent injury.
The drawstring in the hood can tighten around a child's neck, causing strangulation. The multi-colored yarn tassels may also get caught, leading to entrapment.
Parents or caregivers of children who own the recalled sweaters are most at risk. Children under age 10 who wear the sweaters could be harmed by the drawstring.
Look for hand-knitted wool sweaters with a hood in sizes 1 through 10. The sweaters have a drawstring with multi-colored yarn tassels and a black neck tag labeled 'El Gringo Imports'.
Take the drawstring out of the hood to eliminate the strangulation hazard immediately.
