Once upon a time, there was a girl who bought some stitch markers for someone she loved. The stitch markers were magnetized hematite spheres in a set of seven, the seventh one bearing a key. The set made the girl think of Bluebeard’s castle, and the last key to the last door that must never be unlocked. And like Bluebeard’s wife, she could not stop thinking about that key until she possessed it and all its secrets. So one day she went back to the fabled land of Etsy, and visited once again the shining castle known as Exchanging Fire, and brought back not only the key that she had so long thought about, but other fairytale treasures!
In true fairytale fashion, the girl continued working on her spinning, although she could not yet turn straw to gold.
And seven tiny hats appeared on a shelf, waiting for seven mysterious heads to fill them.
And everyone knit happily ever after!
