Maria Young is the sole stockholder of Purl of Great Price Company (POGP Company), which produces high-end knitted sweaters and sweater vests for sale to retail outlets. The company started in January of the current year, and employs three knitters (each of whom work 40 hours per week) and one office manager/knitting supervisor (this employee works 20 hours per week as office manager, and 20 hours per week as knitting supervisor).
