Speaking as a die-hard fan of kitsch and other utterly tasteless chatske & shmatte, (with credit to Ms. Huston), oh HELL to the no!
However I'd love to see a picture of anyone daring to wear that out in public.

HAH. Love that it's a doll. I wonder if they'll be making Obama sweaters in that style this year? http://www.creepysantaphotos.com/2009/12…

Yawn. Wake me up when the ugly Santa doll is knitted and actually incorporated into the sweater.

While it definately pushed the Lauriete Committee's definition of "sweater", it excels so thoroughly in "ugly", it should be granted the prize.

Awesome! Finally, I can achieve that parasitic twin look I've been so desperate to recreate since I was a child after seeing "Total Recall."

#8 makes a good point. There's so much missed potential here, I rescind my nomination to the committee as a Christmas Sweater, but will give it a nod for special achievement in horrifying.

If y'all aren't reading Regretsy every day, where I'm pretty sure The Hairpin found this, you're missing out. This isn't even in the top half of items this week. The felt vagina with baby Jesus dangling out of it by a pipe cleaner umbilical cord is the winner, I think, though the multi-vulva Christmas tree ornament is pretty spectacular too.

Fnarf @11,

Link please, for those of us internet challenged.

Until I see further evidence, this stands as the ugliest Xmas sweater I've ever seen in 40+ years.

You gave away my idea for the Slog Happy gift exchange!

"The felt vagina with baby Jesus dangling out of it by a pipe cleaner umbilical cord" ... you're kidding, right??
I mean, *seriously* - a work of art like that would make me go buy a mannequin just to display that one.

Although it is very ugly but it is very handy to grab the attention of people towards you in some gathering hahaha.

@13,

Photo of said abomination is here: http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_fullxfull.2…

It was called "The still birth of Christ". Ewww.

SOMEONE liked it, cause its sold. However, you can still acquire other "Abornments" here. http://www.etsy.com/shop/abornaments
