Christmas sweaters make me smile. They bring back feelings of nostalgia and the spirit of self expression and a general feeling of winter coziness. I'm old enough to remember that ugly Christmas sweaters were never intended to be ugly, but rather playful and lighthearted. Then I'll admit, they did get ugly and actually pretty funny and the ugly sweater became fashionable for a hot minute. Now the ugly is out and the pretty is in. I've picked some beauties for you--see if you don't agree. Most of these sweaters can be worn all winter, not just in December. All are knit top down with two color stranded work unless noted. Ravelry links are included. At the end I have a favorite Christmas sweater story straight from the 80s. Also, let me know if I missed any of your favorites.
