LAINE Issue 19

Laine is a high-quality Nordic knit & lifestyle magazine for knit folks. We cherish natural fibers, slow living, local craftsmanship and beautiful, simple things in life. Our 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.

Issue 19, Winter 2024, includes:

  • 148 pages

  • 11 knitting patterns (both charts and written instructions provided): 4 sweaters, 1 cardigan, 2 vests, 1 skirt, 1 shawl, 1 hat, 1 pair of socks.

  • An interview with the Japanese artist Tomomi Mimura, who uses basic darning stitches to embroider charming animal characters.

  • An article about the American sheep shearer Pony Jacobson, and why this age-old craft is vital both for sheep’s health and the textile industry.

  • Jeanette Sloan’s Fibre Talk: A regular article on Jeanette chatting with interesting people. In this issue, she meets Sari Monroy, a fibre artist and writer who draws on her Mayan Kaqchikel heritage.

  • Five Ways by our regular writer Päivi Kankaro, who explores what kind of skills knitters should practise to increase their brain health.

  • Where I Knit: a regular piece that pictures people knitting in their favourite spot. In this issue, we meet Atia, who knits in her beautiful London living room.
