Kim has an excellent point. Fortunately, voting once every four years is only the beginning of the ways we have the freedom to affect change in this country. Just because a candidate lost does not have to mean his ideals are. If we are active in letter writing, protesting, contacting our representatives, etc, our voices can still be heard. Republican, Democrat, or whatever, they are in Congress and Senate to fulfill the wishes of their constituents. We just need to make sure they know what we want.

Why Wild Swan?
In The Wild Swans by HC Anderson, a girl must knit sweaters for her 12 brothers-turned-swans to make them human again, in the short time before she is to be burned as a witch, and she must do it with her bare hands using stinging nettles. In addition to being a very exciting example of knitting in fairy tales, it sums up the essence of knitting; though painfully frustrating at times, it is always worthwhile.
