Hello, welcome to Knitting Pipeline.

Thank you for joining me today. This episode is sponsored by my Longerberger home business,

Quinson Company, and Close Net. The folks at Quinson Company produce a line

of thoughtfully conceived yarns in their historic spinnery in New England. Their wool comes from domestic

sheet and other fibers come from earth-friendly suppliers. You will find that Quinsome

company 100% wool is a living fiber, beautiful, practical, sustainable, and affordable.

Find them at quinson Company.com, that's QUince, A-C-O-D-C-O.com.

Fine fibers and friendly service is the motto of Close Knit,

and that is exactly what you'll find in our store
