Description
Cotton, raglan sleeves, ages 2 to 10 — a sensible specification for a child's Christmas top.
Both details matter more than the design. Cotton breathes, so a child does not overheat in a warm classroom and get miserable; raglan sleeves run diagonally to the neck rather than seaming at the shoulder, so there is more room to move and fewer seams rubbing. Between them they cover the two most common reasons a jumper comes off before lunch.
The listing mentions several designs — snowmen, dinosaurs, monster trucks — which is worth noticing. A child will wear a jumper about diggers far more willingly than one about Christmas, and both count on the day.
Before the day
- Size up if they are between sizes; cotton shrinks a little on the first wash
- Wash inside out on cool — the print goes long before the fabric does
- Cotton takes a stain treatment, which printed polyester does not
- A layer, not outerwear
Fourteen pounds for cotton is good value at this size. For an all-over printed alternative that stands out more in a class photograph, see the 3-16 3D graphic pullover.
