Located on Victoria Row in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

We are open 12 months a year!

The largest item in our store is our sweaters! Made right here in our store!

 

It requires about one year’s training to make our ( over 60 designs ) of sweaters on our antique swiss knitting looms.

sizes 34- 52 or contact us for custom sizing 

Choose from any of our 21 working colours

We use real wooden buttons from the douglas fir trees in British Columbia

In an age when most manufacturers strive to cut costs and improve efficiency,

it has become our goal to be about a hundred years behind the rest.

While it might seem to be an odd achievement, it is the only way we know of fulfilling our main objective of being the highest quality maker of outdoor sweaters in the world.

It is no accident that our sweaters are often seen in major motion pictures set in the late nineteenth or early twentieth centuries.

Our level of craftsmanship is born of that era and since we make sweaters to last a lifetime it only makes good sense to create styles that endure as well. Each of our garments is created by knitting fully fashioned panels by hand on antique Swiss knitting looms. Knitted panels are then assembled by point-by-point linking using the same yarn used to knit the sweater.

Every sweater is then painstakingly hand finished to perfection.

There is no cutting and, with the exception of buttons and labels, no sewing anywhere on our sweaters.

We are located in Prince Edward Island, Canada, a tiny province with a big reputation for traditional values and craftsmanship.

No sweater we make is complete until the hangtag has been signed by the knitter who actually made the garment.

That signature is your guarantee that your sweater was crafted with care by one of the world’s best knitters.

We are indeed, a hundred years behind the times.

We wouldn’t have it any other way.
