A Swedish boy has to work at many different things in exchange for others to card, spin, dye, weave, and sew his wool, before he can earn a new suit made from the wool of his own lamb.

This book was a gift from my friend Judith, and I've read it through several times but had never logged it in Goodreads before.
I've been reading through some of the small books I have lying around just as fun little detours from my main reads.
The book is so sweet and the illustrations are absolutely gorgeous. I would definitely recommend this as a gift to anyone with a textile hobby - knitters, spinners, dyers, weavers, seamstresses and tailors - of any age. And of course any child, as it teaches the very satisfying lesson that nothing appears out of thin air, which I think is quite valuable and overlooked these days.
Fun Fact: my cat took an interest in this book as it sat on my side table for whatever reason, so I read it out loud to have her like storytime.
I'm going to die alone lol
