Family Tree shop: Hilary Grant knitwear, Kate Sherridan and other good things

Family Tree shop on Exmouth Market, home of the perspex feather brooches I love so much (designed by Takako, the shop owner), also stocks some other great designer-makers.

I particularly like this Hilary Grant knitwear - designed, knitted and finished in Scotland, using wool from North East England. Her contemporary designs draw on the tradition of Scottish knitwear, and this season's colours are delicious coral and piccalilli, as well as more neutral brown-greys and blues. I follow Hilary on Instagram - her pictures from Orkney, where she lives, are a breath of fresh air in my London life.

love these Ally Capellino satchels and Veja bags (these are from France)

Veja tote bag - lovely bright red

Ally Capellino sale

I love this bright red colour (veg tanned leather from Ally Capellino) - the Lesley bag now on sale, but sadly no longer available in this colour.

But you could always try this one from Kate Sheridan - not quite such a glowing red, but an excellent tote bag nonetheless.
