Ugly Sweaters have become a staple of the holiday season. This year, Knit Picks celebrates The Best of the Worst with six designs by Kim Cameron, winner of national awards for her ugly sweaters. From reindeer with bulging eyes to Christmas trees buckling under the weight of their ornaments, these designs, made from the same basic sweater pattern and crafted in intarsia or duplicate stitch, will knock your stockings off. Embellish them with 3D elements, add flashing lights, or keep the designs basic and the colors garish and you’re sure to have friends gasping with delight as you transform ugly into joyous, this season.

There are six different sweaters included in this free eBook: A Reindeer, an Elf, a snowman, a Christmas tree, ornaments with garland and a mantel with stockings.

You can either use intarsia when knitting the sweater, or double stranded Duplicate Stitch after knitting and blocking the sweater (so the pattern is raised).
