Shoemaker and the Elves

 The shoemaker was hungry and tired, but still proud of his work. He took his scissors and skillfully cut the leather into pieces and laid everything on the table ready to stitch together the following day. The next morning he woke up early and went downstairs to stitch the shoes. To his great astonishment on his table he saw a pair of magnificent shoes! He inspected them very closely and did not find one bad stitch. They were perfect.
