Noria NeedleNest is the High KnitWitch of the Clothborn Coven, an iron-haired matriarch whose every silver needle is older than most kingdoms. She presides over the Coven's hearth in Fray's End, where she takes in the unwoven, the heart-frayed, and the half-forgotten, and sends them back into the world a stitch tidier. Her authorship of The Legacy of Bobbin Blench is widely considered the finest historical account in Threadbare; her cinnamon biscuits, the finest biscuits. Noria does not suffer foolishness, and she does not lose stitches — not in cloth, not in memory, not in people.
