How to pick the perfect ugly Christmas jumper

Decide how ugly you're going. There's a sliding scale – a smart Nordic Fair Isle you can wear to Christmas lunch at one end, and a flashing, 3D-printed, pun-covered monstrosity at the other. Office parties and Christmas Jumper Day reward the latter.

Size up if in doubt. Knitted novelty jumpers often come up a little small and you'll probably wear a shirt underneath. Always check the size chart on the Amazon listing before ordering.

Order early. The most popular designs sell out in December. Ordering by late November means you're not stuck with whatever's left.

Light-up jumpers need batteries. Most LED jumpers have a removable battery pack – check the listing for the battery type and take it out before washing.

Christmas Jumper Day

Every December, schools and workplaces across the UK wear their festive knits for Save the Children's Christmas Jumper Day. It's the perfect excuse to grab something properly ugly for the whole family – including the dog.
