Summary

After her aunt dies, a poor girl inherits a spindle, a shuttle, and a needle. She's quick with these tools and manages to make a decent living. One day, a prince comes into town looking for the "girl who is poorest and richest at the same time." She doesn't know it, but her spindle, needle, and shuttle have a certain magic to them that might lead the prince to her!
