Hilary Grant

A couple of years ago I was giving a talk in Dundee at a Central Station event, where I met the lovely Hilary Grant. Hilary creates absolutely beautiful knitwear, all by made by hand in Scotland with locally sourced materials and UK-based suppliers, such as Found in Bath. Hilary has created embroidery designs for Alexander McQueen (one of my favourite fashion houses) and was awarded support and mentoring this year with the Princes Scottish Youth Business Trust. I might be in sunny Australia, but if you're a wee bit chilly back home in the UK, treat yourself to one of HG's super-soft scarfs to keep you warm and snug this winter!
