What else could you do this night? Make (or buy them in your local store) some cookies for the party (sweater-shaped, but of course), vote for the ugliest one at your party. You don’t need to make sweaters yourself or receive them from your granny, by the way. Lots of ugly sweaters are available in stores, make your choice.
