I remember when ugly Christmas sweaters weren’t a thing. You might have seen them on your grandma or maybe your 2nd grade teacher, but now they’re everywhere. According to the Daily Beast, over 26,000 holiday sweaters were sold on eBay from September to November this year alone. That’s insane! And that’s just one site. Wearing ugly Christmas sweaters during the holidays has become as much of a tradition as baking cookies or putting up a tree. We’ve rounded up our favs to help you narrow your search — if you don’t want to make one yourself, that is.
