Coldwater Creek Recalls Sweaters

July 26, 2007
Coldwater Creek is recalling about 3,500 sweaters because of a burn hazard.

The sweaters fail to meet federal flammability requirements. Should the sweater come in contact with an ignition source, such as a stove burner, candle flame or cigarette lighter, it could catch fire and cause serious burns to consumers.

This recall involves Coldwater Creek shawl collar sweaters in red only. The textured yarn sweaters were sold in sizes XS through 3X. A tag sewn into the neck of the sweater displays the Coldwater Creek brand logo.

The sweaters were sold by the Coldwater Creek catalog and coldwatercreek.com from November 2006 through May 2007 for $62.

They were manufactured in Hong Kong.

Consumers should stop wearing the sweater and return it to Coldwater Creek for a refund, including tax and postage. The company will provide consumers with a $20 coupon towards another purchase.

Consumer Contact: For more information, consumers should contact Coldwater Creek at (800) 262-0040 between 6 a.m. and 3 a.m. ET, or visit the firm's Web site at www.coldwatercreek.com.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
