The History of the Ugly Sweater
The inception of unappealing sweaters traces back to the very origins of humanity’s fashion experimentation. These garments didn’t emerge from deliberate intentions; rather, they often resulted from inadvertent knitting mishaps or the pursuit of creative designs that fell short of expectations. Nevertheless, it didn’t take much time before grandmothers across the globe, perhaps with a subtle chuckle, took up the craft of purposefully creating unsightly Christmas sweaters adorned with baubles and sentimental “I love Grandma” messages. Beware, grandmothers, we’ve got our eyes on you.
