Andrew Lang (1844 – 1912) was a Scots poet, novelist, literary critic, and contributor to the field of anthropology. He is best known as a collector of folk and fairy tales. The Andrew Lang lectures at the University of St Andrews are named after him. Lang was also a prolific author of works both fiction and non.
Spindle, Shuttle and Needle is a fairy tale collected by the Brothers Grimm and included it in The Andrew Lang's Yellow Fairy Book. The narrative follows a young girl.
