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.
