Üks vana sviiter/An old sweater

Eelmise aasta novembris ostsin Mardilaadal ilusat tumehalli villast. Firma nimi on Ropkamõisa Lõngapood. Seal on palju ilusat villast lõnga. Hakkasin selle aasta alguses sviitrit kuduma. Ilus ühtlane lõng, kõik oli suurepärane, aga siis selgus, et mul jääb puudu umbes niipalju, et kududa alla soonik. Uurisin firmast järele, ega sellist lõnga ei saa juurde. Seda halli ei olnud. Küsisin mitu korda veel, ikka polnud. Nüüd mõtlesin, et miks kudum seisab, tuleb kas kinkida kellelegi või harutada ja teha midagi muud. Läksin siis Domus Linumisse, Külli proovis selga ja talle sobis! Harutasin siis natuke labast kude ja tegin sooniku. Pärast pesu läks koepind veelgi kenamaks. Mul on hea meel, et asi lahenes.
Last year at St. Martin's Day Fair I bought some lovely dark grey wool. The name of the firm is Ropkamõisa Lõgapood, they have a lot of beautiul wool. In the beginning of this year I started knitting a sweater. Beautiful even yarn, everything went well but later it turned out that I need some more, just to make the ribbing on the hem. I asked in th store whether they have the same yarn. They did not have the same kind of grey. I kept asking from time to time but the answer was still "no". Then I thought: why is it just sitting unfinished, I should either give it as a present or rip and make something else. So I went to Domus Linum and Külli tried on and it fitted! I ripped out a bit of stockinette and made ribbing instead. After washing the fabric became even more beautiful. I am very glad that the matter was resolved.
