Javi is a playful pullover for infants and toddlers, and is equally suitable for boys and girls. Functional button plackets make it easy to get on over bulbous little noggins. Sleeves are bound off at a
short length, and full-length sleeves in a textured stitch are picked up from beneath, giving the illusion of 2 cozy layers, without too much bulk.
