Laine is a high-quality Nordic knit & lifestyle magazine for knit folks. Cherishing natural fibres, slow living, local craftsmanship, and beautiful, simple things in life, the intention is to inspire you to gather and share, to be part of a community of like-minded knitters, makers and thinkers from near and far. Knitting is more than just knit, knit, purl. It is a feeling. 

Laine is entirely in English and includes patterns from the leading knitwear designers, insightful, long-format stories from the world of wool, interviews, exciting travel articles, seasonal recipes and strong, visual storytelling. 

LAINE 15

The autumn issue, Laine 15, comes with a whole new look! This beloved magazine is taking a step into a more modern, dynamic direction by celebrating knitwear and the world of fiber in a fresh way. Together with the new look, Laine introduces new, regular articles, such as Jeanette Sloan Talks Fibre. Of course, there are also things that won’t change: gorgeous knitwear patterns, beautiful high-quality photography and the size of the magazine, all elements that Laine is known for.

The new look was created by Kyiv-born Marina Veziko, one of Finland’s leading designers and the Graphic Designer of the Year 2021. While the war continues in Ukraine, Laine are prouder than ever to support Ukraine and its people.

The designers featured in this issue include: Isabella Clark, Evgeniya Dupliy, Lindsey Fowler, Katrine Hannibal, Ema Marinescu, Claudia Quintanilla, Maria Walters and Sylvia Watts-Cherry.

PLEASE NOTE: To celebrate their new look, Laine has two different cover versions available for this issue. One in full-color and the other a limited black and white version, which will only be available during preorder!
