Description
A printed Christmas pullover with an unusually long age range behind it.
The 4–16 range is the selling point here, because it means siblings several years apart can wear the same design without one of them looking like they raided the wrong drawer. If you have two children on Christmas Jumper Day, that matters more than the pattern does. Buy the age, not the flattering age — children's sizing on imported printed garments tends to come up narrow through the body, and a jumper that will not go over a school polo shirt is no use at 8am.
Being printed rather than knitted, it will not survive being handed down twice. It will survive one December and a lot of enthusiasm, which is usually the actual requirement.
Before the day
- Wash it once before the event — new printed fabric can feel stiff and children notice
- Check it fits over a school shirt, not just over a vest
- Printed designs shed brightness fast; wash cold, inside out, and skip the tumble dryer
- At $29.99 it is not a hand-me-down, so pick the child who will get the most out of it
