A Curse Dark as Gold by Elizabeth C. Bunce

I don't know how long we watched it, turning and turning, flashing gold with every revolution. But after her fathers death, the bad luck piles up: departing workers, impossible debts, an overbearing uncle. Round and round the spindle went, and the gleaming of gold turned with it. Charlotte Miller has always scoffed at talk of a curse on her familys woolen mill, which holds her beloved small town together. Something pulled out from the brown straw and through his knobby fingers, and where it shoudl have gone onto the spindle, the finest strands of gleaming gold threads appeared.
