Inspired by one of the books we read over and over at our house, “Freight Train” by Donald Crews. Such a simple book, but my little ones enjoy it every single time.

Reflecting the simplicity of both the story and illustrations, this argyle vest has simple lines and details. Pair it with a dapper little outfit for a boy or a sweet skirt for a girl.
