Binghamton, New York

Crafted with pride in upstate New York.

This is a story of good people- -loyal, hard working people- -who refused to shift apparel production overseas like so many. This family-run knitting mill has been part of its small community since 1926, and that's where it's determined to stay. Most employees, like Rose, have been employed 25 years or more, ingeniously recycling upholstery scraps into the unique creations you see here. Don't let "recycled" scare you. The fabric is all kinds of soft! Thanks to your purchases, the factory is at full capacity. Let's keep them busy!
