looking for the lyrics of a song I heard the other day sung by the black family - dont know the title of the song but it was about waving and mending and the girl 'singing it' finally finding the old woman in herself.

one of the lines of the chorus was weave and spin sisters
and there was something about collecting the threads/colours in the verses.

I am hopeless at this but I am still hoping you can come up trumps cos that line keeps going round in my head - a bit like when MC FAT sang Rother sing Don Song and that plagued me for weeks til I grovelled for the words
