The fire was out and the hearth was cold. All that was left was the yarn and her dreams, bitter pickings indeed. But how
could she give up with the children racing happily through the forest collecting the first of the spring mushrooms and the
remaining dried berries? There was nothing for it but to knit her wish, a rainfall of coins around her ears so she could get new
shoes for Nika and a bit of salt pork to season the cabbage water for everyone. It’s true a beautiful piece could still bring a
prize at market, that is if she did her best and had a just little of the Midas touch. What is your wish for Midas’s Sloucher?
