Wear it. You bought it because you liked it. Who cares what someone else thinks? (Does that person pay your bills?)

I've decided to bring it back and buy a toy for a kid.
Teenage boys get left out a lot in the gift giving area.
Girls seem to have all the toys. I'm buying a big LEGO
set to bring joy to a teenager boy.

Where I work they have an ugly sweater contest the last working day before Christmas. The winner gets a gift card.
The catch is no bought off the shelf sweaters, they want to see people's creativity on dressing up a sweater to be an ugly Christmas sweater. Lots of fun and laughs

I belong to a church club that help the homeless here in St Augustine , this year's theme for our annual Christmas Party, a Ugly Christmas Sweater contest. I'm in the process of making one and make it look ugly- which in my book is very hard to do. Actually I think yours sounds cute -wear it and give someone a smile today!

WHat a thoughtful person you are, Lynnie. So right about teen boys being left out. From what I remember, you also like to make boy or guy quilts for the same reason, right?

Please know that beauty really is in the eyes of the beholder so, with that said, if I bought a sweater I would wear it and not care what others said. Like maybe the person who thinks your sweater is ugly might just have bad taste. Wear it with a smile and have a great day.

Cannot hardly stand a long sleeve shirt here in Arizona. I if were colder I would participate. I love to see them all as a group.

As long as you don't wear it with your pants at half mast and your butt rack showing you're good. People can be a little too judgmental.

If you like it, wear it, if you don't return it, personally I don't wear sweaters, of any kind. LOL
