The Duke and Duchess of Sussex kept with tradition by choosing a cream shawl and hat made by the same family company used by the Queen, Diana and Kate. Proud parents Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, swaddled son Archie in a £105 merino wool shawl and £65 hat by G.H. Hurt & Son for his first photocell at St George's Hall in Windsor Castle on Wednesday (May 8). It marks a tradition spanning back some 70 years, with the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Charles and Princess Diana, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge all choosing to swaddle their children in shawls from the company on their public debuts.  The shawl used was the ‘Leaves and Flowers Baby Shawl’, in white. The baby shawl is inspired by the brand’s handframe lace knitting heritage and is made using merino wool, each shawl produced at G.H. Hurt & Son’s factory in Nottingham, England.  Each ‘Leaves and Flowers Baby Shawl’ is made of two separate knitted pieces, which are then hand finished and joined with a pretty shell edge on all four side. This creates a large but light and airy feel, perfect to wrap a baby. The cute cashmere hat used was also from G.H. Hurt & Son and is usually available as a set, complete with mittens (Cashmere Baby Hat & Mittens). A spokesman for G.H. Hurt & Son said: ‘We feel so proud and honoured that Harry and Meghan have chosen our beautiful merino wool lacy knitted baby shawls and in doing so have continued a royal tradition now going back over 70 years.’. 09 May 2019 Pictured: G.H.
