Does anyone know the sourceand/or text of the story about a man (Or a woman)
who wears a coat until it is too ragged, then turns it into a blanket until
it is too ragged and then makes a shawl and uses it until it becomes too
ragged...and so on and so on until he/she makes the remaining cloth into a button
cover? I have heard of this tale (or song) but do not know where it comes from

Thanks
Robin

it I am not for myself, who am I?
if I am not for others, what am I?
if not now, when?
