WASHINGTON, D.C. - In cooperation with the U.S. Consume r Product Safety Commission, (CPSC), Federated Merchandising Group, of New York, N.Y., is voluntarily recalling about 1,000 Greendog® girl's capri pant and shirt sets.

Macy's, Burdines, The Bon Marche, Rich's, Lazarus and Goldsmith's sold the capri sets nationwide between January 2002 and February 2002 for about $26.
