Next Marketing Inc. of Wabash, Ind., said Friday it was recalling 22,000 hooded fleece pullovers. The Chinese-made garments have a drawstring through the hood, posing a strangulation hazard to children. In February 1996, the Consumer Product Safety Commission issued guidelines to help prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on the neck and waist by drawstrings in upper garments, such as jackets and sweatshirts. No injuries have been reported. The recalled youth hooded fleece garments have drawstrings. They were sold in a variety of colors and many of them have the names of colleges and universities printed or embroidered on them. A sewn-in tag reads, "Lil Fan" or "LF 2."
