hilary grant knitwear — Lizzie for SMUG

Hilary believes that everyday items should be beautifully made and I rather agree. Designed, knitted and hand finished in Scotland, Hilary Grant’s collection of scarves, hats and gloves combine simple, classic styles with bold patterns in sophisticated and compelling tones. Made from a soft 2 ply lambswool, Hilary Grant’s pieces are wearable, practical, playful and of the utmost quality - designed to be cherished and enjoyed winter after winter. SMUG launched Hilary's 2012-13 collection last winter in our Islinton store and the mushroom dash circle scarf that I bought at the time is still cherished and enjoyed and will continue to be, I'm sure, winter after winter. The things is, now SMUG has received the 2013-14 collection with it's beautiful cinnamon and vole colourways, it wouldn't seem quite right for me not to chose another scarf to cherish and enjoy winter after winter. SMUG is lucky enough to have two Hilary Grant exclusives in our trademark mustard, or picalilli as Hilary likes to call it. You'll only find these designs at SMUG which makes them extra special in my book. Hilary Grant’s pieces offer the perfect unity between beauty and utility. Wearable and well-crafted, they are designed to bring a little joy to even the most gloomy of winter days. Our exclusive Arrow Circle Scarf in Piccalilli and Pom Scarf in Cobble & Piccalilli are availble in store at SMUG and online at www.ifeelsmug.com along with the pieces from Hilary's 2013-14 collection.
