About Us

Rustico Bay Wool Sweater Company first welcomed customers in the spring of 2001, all thanks to Albert Dow,  Kathy (Dow) Winter's father who had a knack for business.  Albert, who loved things all things outdoors and all things wool, kicked off the company by partnering with local knitting experts from Atlantic Canada. As the years passed  the shop expanded its offerings showcasing a wide range of Canadian and recently sweaters from England and Ireland.  In 2007, Kathy took over as the company's owner, following in her dad's footsteps. With her wooly team, Kathy focusses on delivering the fantastic customer service and premium products, upholding the family business tradition.
