I remember that! And she's not allowed to say a single word the whole time, and a Prince comes and marries her and she has three kids and the Prince's mother or stepmother is jealous and steals the kids and pricks their fingers and puts the blood on her lips and she's about to be burnt at the stake as a wish when her brothers come to rescue her, and she's not quite finished with the sweaters so the last one is stuck with one swan wing the rest of his life.
And I always wanted to know the story of the rest of his life!
