Laine Magazine Issue 14 - Summer 2022

Laine is a high-quality Nordic knit & lifestyle magazine for knit folks. They cherish natural fibres, slow living, local craftsmanship and beautiful, simple things. Laine intends to inspire you to gather and share, to be part of a community of like-minded knitters, makers and thinkers from near and far.

Laine magazine is taking a step into a more modern, dynamic direction by celebrating knitwear and the world of fibre in a fresh way. With the new look, Laine is excited to introduce new, regular articles, such as Jeanette Sloan Talks Fibre. Of course, some things 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 is prouder than ever to support Ukraine and its people.
