I somras stickade jag en liten vinr\u00f6d kofta med vitt ok. En g\u00e5ng f\u00f6r l\u00e4nge sedan k\u00f6pte jag tre garnnystan i olika gr\u00e5 nyanser till en s\u00e5dan d\u00e4r OS-m\u00f6ssa som sedan bara blev halv och nystades tillbaka. Min brors arbetskamrat fick barn f\u00f6r n\u00e5gra veckor sedan, och min bror tyckte att en liten m\u00f6rkgr\u00e5 kofta vore en bra present. Varje g\u00e5ng n\u00e4r jag \u00e4r i London brukar jag springa till en liten second hand-aff\u00e4r d\u00e4r de har garn fr\u00e5n Cygnet, en garnfabrik i Bradford. F\u00f6r ungef\u00e4r tv\u00e5 \u00e5r sedan var jag p\u00e5 ett stickcaf\u00e9 p\u00e5 Hemmets Journal och fick med mig allt som blev \u00f6ver fr\u00e5n restgarnsbordet.
\nVad blir summan av allt detta?
\nJo, naturligtvis att det h\u00f6ll p\u00e5 att sv\u00e4mma \u00f6ver alldeles.<\/p>\n
D\u00e5 f\u00e5r man sticka en restgarnskofta!
\nDet fanns sm\u00e5 nystan i m\u00e5nga, m\u00e5nga f\u00e4rger, men just till den h\u00e4r valde jag allt som hade n\u00e5gorlunda dova nyanser.
\nDet gula nystanet var ett oanv\u00e4nt Cygnet-nystan p\u00e5\u00a0hundra gram\u00a0— vill man ha en n\u00e5gorlunda symmetrisk komposition kan det vara bra att ha n\u00e5got som r\u00e4cker ett tag. Det vinr\u00f6da kan inte ha varit mer \u00e4n 50 gram och tog slut tre r\u00e4nder f\u00f6re slutet, s\u00e5 d\u00e5 fick jag byta till det m\u00f6rkgr\u00e5.
\nMen jag tror att det syns p\u00e5 bilden att jag b\u00f6rjade med n\u00e5gra olika sm\u00e5 gr\u00e5 och dovt gr\u00f6na bollar och stickade tills de tog slut — fyra varv med dem, fyra vinr\u00f6da, fyra gr\u00e5, och s\u00e5 vidare. N\u00e4r n\u00e5got tog slut fogade jag in n\u00e4sta med en rysk skarv. Po\u00e4ngen var, tyckte jag, att verkligen anv\u00e4nda garnet in till sista centimetern, f\u00f6r jag ville inte ha n\u00e5gra nya sm\u00e5 rester.
\n\u00c4rmarna stickade jag enf\u00e4rgade f\u00f6r att slippa f\u00e5 en massa garn\u00e4ndar att f\u00e4sta — jag t\u00e4nkte att det nog skulle g\u00f6ra "s\u00f6mmen" klumpig.
\n"Var \u00e4r beskrivningen?" brukar n\u00e5gon eller n\u00e5gra fr\u00e5ga n\u00e4r man visar saker p\u00e5 Online Stickcaf\u00e9 p\u00e5 Facebook.
\nNu \u00e4r det s\u00e5 att den h\u00e4r koftan har \u00e5kt till sin mottagare, en ett-och-ett-halvt-\u00e5ring i Kalmar, s\u00e5 jag kan inte r\u00e4kna maskor och varv. Men modellen \u00e4r samma som Tv\u00e5 tr\u00e5d\u00e4ndars lilla kofta, och s\u00e5 r\u00e4knade jag om halsringningen och stickade resten p\u00e5 \u00f6gonm\u00e5tt. Hoppas att det hj\u00e4lper!
\nOm det uppst\u00e5r nya rester i s\u00e5dan h\u00e4r m\u00e4ngd lovar jag att f\u00f6rs\u00f6ka komma ih\u00e5g att anteckna medan jag h\u00e5ller p\u00e5.
\n… och s\u00e5 vill jag passa p\u00e5 att \u00f6nska er allihop riktigt fina juldagar!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
