A Reader Question: "Christmas" Sweaters?

A reader question: 

I wonder if I may ask a question please.

Bearing in mind we've been discussing garish sweaters for the last few days I wonder what the readers views are on Christmas sweaters. My wife likes to wear one during the festive season which is surprising as she's normally someone who likes to dress very conservatively.

Personally it's not something I would wear as I'm much too staid.

I would be interested to hear the  communities thoughts

Best wishes

  1. I don’t wear one but, have fun looking at those who do.

  2. They were fun before people started "expressing themselves" with everything, all the time. Now, with all the T-shirts and tattoos and bumper stickers and all sorts of showing off, Christmas sweaters are just one more form of obnoxiousness.

  3. I just like a good traditional red, green or ivory colored sweater for the holiday. My only exception is a Festivus sweater I wear every year on December 23rd.

  4. Not for me. I prefer Norwegian sweaters for myself.

    Kind Thanksgiving Weekend Regards,
